Exploring the Phase Diagram of QCD with Neutron Star Mergers in the Prompt and Non-Prompt Collapse Regime — •Christian Ecker — Gothe University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany

Determining the phase structure of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and its Equation of State (EoS) at densities and temperatures realised inside neutron stars and their mergers is a long-standing open problem. I will present a framework for the EoS of dense and hot QCD that describes the deconfinement phase transition between a dense baryonic and quark matter phase via the holographic V-QCD model. This model is then used to study the consequences on the formation of quark matter in binary neutron star mergers in the prompt and non-prompt collapse regime.
