Bulk and single-particle properties of hot hyperonic matter are studied within the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation extended to finite temperature. The bare interaction in the nucleon sector is the Argonne V18 potential supplemented with an effective three-body force to reproduce the saturating properties of nuclear matter. The modern Nijmegen NSC97e potential is employed for the hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interactions. The effect of the temperature on the in-medium effective interaction is found to be, in general, very small and the single-particle potentials differ by at most 25% for temperatures in the range from 0 to 60 MeV. The bulk properties of infinite matter of baryons, either nuclear isospin symmetric or a beta-stable composition which includes a non-zero fraction of hyperons, are obtained. It is found that the presence of hyperons can modify the thermodynamical properties of the system in a non-negligible way.

The single-nucleon potential in hot nuclear matter is investigated in the framework of the Brueckner theory by adopting the realistic Argonne V18 or Nijmegen 93 two-body nucleon-nucleon interaction supplemented by a microscopic three-body force. The rearrangement contribution to the single-particle potential induced by the ground state correlations is calculated in terms of the hole-line expansion of the mass operator and provides a significant repulsive contribution in the low-momentum region around and below the Fermi surface. Increasing temperature leads to a reduction of the effect, while increasing density makes it become stronger. The three-body force suppresses somewhat the ground state correlations due to its strong short-range repulsion, increasing with density. Inclusion of the three-body force contribution results in a quite different temperature dependence of the single-particle potential at high enough densities as compared to that adopting the pure two-body force. The effects of three-body force and ground state correlations on the nucleon effective mass are also discussed.

We present an error band on neutron matter properties at finite temperature (finite-T) which comprehends uncertainties on the nuclear interaction, the many-body method convergence, and the thermodynamical consistency of the approach. This study provides nonperturbative predictions for finite-T neutron matter employing chiral interactions which are selected on the basis of their performance in both finite nuclei and infinite matter at zero temperature. Since proper theoretical uncertainties at finite-T are still generally lacking, the band provided here represents a first step towards setting first-principles constraints on thermal aspects of the nuclear matter equation of state.
We study the properties of $K$ and $bar K$ mesons in nuclear matter at finite temperature from a chiral unitary approach in coupled channels which incorporates the $s$- and p-waves of the kaon-nucleon interaction. The in-medium solution accounts for Pauli blocking effects, mean-field binding on all the baryons involved, and $pi$ and kaon self-energies. We calculate $K$ and $bar K$ (off-shell) spectral functions and single particle properties. The $bar K$ effective mass gets lowered by about -50 MeV in cold nuclear matter at saturation density and by half this reduction at T=100 MeV. The p-wave contribution to the ${bar K}$ optical potential, due to $Lambda$, $Sigma$ and $Sigma^*$ excitations, becomes significant for momenta larger than 200 MeV/c and reduces the attraction felt by the $bar K$ in the nuclear medium.The $bar K$ spectral function spreads over a wide range of energies, reflecting the melting of the $Lambda (1405)$ resonance and the contribution of $YN^{-1}$ components at finite temperature. In the $KN$ sector, we find that the low-density theorem is a good approximation for the $K$ self-energy close to saturation density due to the absence of resonance-hole excitations. The $K$ potential shows a moderate repulsive behavior, whereas the quasi-particle peak is considerably broadened with increasing density and temperature. We discuss the implications for the decay of the $phi$ meson at SIS/GSI energies as well as in the future FAIR/GSI project.
The equilibrium distributions of the different pasta geometries and their linear sizes are calculated from the mean field Gibbs energy functional in symmetric nuclear matter at finite temperature. The average sizes and shapes coincide approximately with the ones predicted by a standard pasta calculation in the coexisting phase approximation, but fluctuations are additionally calculated and seen to increase with temperature and baryonic density. The different pasta shapes are shown to coexist in a wide domain of density and temperature, in qualitative agreement with the findings of large scale molecular dynamics simulations, but with a much less expensive computational cost.
