Abstract
Constraining the nuclear equation of state (EoS) parameters makes it possible to better understand the properties of the matter that constitutes our Universe. Many probes can be used to test the EoS, from the observation of neutron star mergers to heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies. The fragments and particles emitted in collisions need to be identified with isotopic discrimination in order to give valuable information. In this regard, a specifically designed apparatus, such as FAZIA, may be used to study the equation of state. This review summarizes the advanced characteristics of the FAZIA detector array and the achievements obtained by the FAZIA collaboration in the last 15 years.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
