Constraining the nuclear symmetry energy with Fermi-energy heavy ion collisions

Heavy ion reactions provide a unique opportunity to unveil the Equation of State (EoS) of baryonic matter in a large density domain. However, to get quantitative constraints it is crucial to employ observables that are as insensitive as possible to final state interaction, and at the same time robus...
