The neutron skin thickness $Delta r_{rm{np}}$ of heavy nuclei is essentially determined by the symmetry energy density slope $L({rho })$ at $rho_c = 0.11/0.16rho_0$ ($rho_0$ is nuclear saturation density), roughly corresponding to the average density of finite nuclei. The PREX collaboration recently reported a model-independent extraction of $Delta r^{208}_{rm{np}} = 0.29 pm 0.07$ fm for the $Delta r_{rm{np}}$ of $^{208}$Pb, which suggests a rather stiff symmetry energy $E_{rm{sym}}({rho })$ with $L({rho_c }) ge 55$ MeV. We demonstrate that the $E_{rm{sym}}({rho })$ cannot be too stiff and $L({rho_c }) le 73$ MeV is necessary to be compatible with (1) the ground-state properties and giant monopole resonances of finite nuclei, (2) the constraints on the equation of state of symmetric nuclear matter at suprasaturation densities from flow data in heavy-ion collisions, (3) the largest neutron star (NS) mass reported so far for PSR J0740+6620, (4) the NS tidal deformability extracted from gravitational wave signal GW170817 and (5) the mass-radius of PSR J0030+045 measured simultaneously by NICER. This allow us to obtain $55 le L({rho_c }) le 73$ MeV and $0.22 le Delta r^{208}_{rm{np}} le 0.27$ fm, and further $E_{rm{sym}}({rho_0 }) = 34.5 pm 1.5$ MeV, $L({rho_0 }) = 85.5 pm 22.2$ MeV, and $E_{rm{sym}}({2rho_0 }) = 63.9 pm 14.8$ MeV. A number of critical implications on nuclear physics and astrophysics are discussed.

The recent announcement of the PREX-II measurement of the neutron skin of $^{208}$Pb that suggests a stiff symmetry energy near nuclear matter density $n_0$ and its impact on the EoS of massive compact stars raise the issue as to whether the widely a
ccepted lore in nuclear astrophysics that the EoS determined at $n_0$ necessarily gives a stringent ``constraint at high densities relevant to massive compact stars. We present the argument that the ``cusp structure in the symmetry energy at $n_{1/2}gsim 2 n_0$ predicted by a topology change in dense matter could obstruct the validity of the lore. The topology change, encoding the emergence of QCD degrees of freedom in terms of hidden local and scale symmetries, predicts an EoS that is soft below and stiff above $ngsim n_{1/2}$, involving no low-order phase transitions, and yields the macrophysical properties of neutron stars overall consistent with the astrophysical observations including the maximum mass $ 2.0lsim M/ M_odotlsim 2.2$ as well as the GW data. Furthermore it describes the interior core of the massive stars constituted of baryon-charge-fractionalized quasi-fermions, that are neither baryonic nor quarkonic, with the ``pseudo-conformal sound speed $v^2_{pcs}/c^2approx 1/3$ converged from below at $n_{1/2}$ with a nonzero trace of energy-momentum tensor. { In the renormalization-group approach to interacting fermions dubbed $Gn$EFT, the strangeness degrees of freedom play no role in the density regime relevant to the massive stars considered.}
A number of observed phenomena associated with individual neutron star systems or neutron star populations find explanations in models in which the neutron star crust plays an important role. We review recent work examining the sensitivity to the slo
pe of the symmetry energy $L$ of such models, and constraints extracted on $L$ from confronting them with observations. We focus on six sets of observations and proposed explanations: (i) The cooling rate of the neutron star in Cassiopeia A, confronting cooling models which include enhanced cooling in the nuclear pasta regions of the inner crust, (ii) the upper limit of the observed periods of young X-ray pulsars, confronting models of magnetic field decay in the crust caused by the high resistivity of the nuclear pasta layer, (iii) glitches from the Vela pulsar, confronting the paradigm that they arise due to a sudden re-coupling of the crustal neutron superfluid to the crustal lattice after a period during which they were decoupled due to vortex pinning, (iv) The frequencies of quasi-periodic oscillations in the X-ray tail of light curves from giant flares from soft gamma-ray repeaters, confronting models of torsional crust oscillations, (v) the upper limit on the frequency to which millisecond pulsars can be spun-up due to accretion from a binary companion, confronting models of the r-mode instability arising above a threshold frequency determined in part by the viscous dissipation timescale at the crust-core boundary, and (vi) the observations of precursor electromagnetic flares a few seconds before short gamma-ray bursts, confronting a model of crust shattering caused by resonant excitation of a crustal oscillation mode by the tidal gravitational field of a companion neutron star just before merger.
The symmetry energy obtained with the effective Skyrme energy density functional is related to the values of isoscalar effective mass and isovector effective mass, which is also indirectly related to the incompressibility of symmetric nuclear matter.
In this work, we analyze the values of symmetry energy and its related nuclear matter parameters in five-dimensional parameter space by describing the heavy ion collision data, such as isospin diffusion data at 35 MeV/u and 50 MeV/u, neutron skin of $^{208}$Pb, and tidal deformability and maximum mass of neutron star. We obtain the parameter sets which can describe the isospin diffusion, neutron skin, tidal deformability and maximum mass of neutron star, and give the incompressibility $K_0$=250.23$pm$20.16 MeV, symmetry energy coefficient $S_0$=31.35$pm$2.08 MeV, the slope of symmetry energy $L$=59.57$pm$10.06 MeV, isoscalar effective mass $m_s^*/m$=0.75$pm$0.05 and quantity related to effective mass splitting $f_I$=0.005$pm$0.170. At two times normal density, the symmetry energy we obtained is in 35-55 MeV. To reduce the large uncertainties of $f_I$, more critical works in heavy ion collisions at different beam energies are needed.
Recently, the radius of neutron star (NS) PSR J0740+6620 was measured by NICER and an updated measurement of neutron skin thickness of ${}^{208}$Pb ($R_{rm skin}^{208}$) was reported by the PREX-II experiment. These new measurements can help us bette
r understand the unknown equation of state (EoS) of dense matter. In this work, we adopt a hybrid parameterization method, which incorporates the nuclear empirical parameterization and some widely used phenomenological parameterizations, to analyze the results of nuclear experiments and astrophysical observations. With the joint Bayesian analysis of GW170817, PSR J0030+0451, and PSR J0740+6620, the parameters that characterize the ultra dense matter EoS are constrained. We find that the slope parameter $L$ is approximately constrained to $70_{-18}^{+21}$ MeV, which predicts $R_{rm skin}^{208}=0.204^{+0.030}_{-0.026},{rm fm}$ by using the universal relation between $R_{rm skin}^{208}$ and $L$. And the bulk properties of canonical $1.4,M_odot$ NS (e.g., $R_{1.4}$ and $Lambda_{1.4}$) as well as the pressure ($P_{2rho_{rm sat}}$) at two times the nuclear saturation density are well constrained by the data, i.e., $R_{1.4}$, $Lambda_{1.4}$, and $P_{2rho_{rm sat}}$ are approximately constrained to $12.3pm0.7$ km, $330_{-100}^{+140}$, and $4.1_{-1.2}^{+1.5}times10^{34},{rm dyn,cm^{-2}}$, respectively. Besides, we find that the Bayes evidences of the hybrid star and normal NS assumptions are comparable, which indicates that current observation data are compatible with quarkyonic matter existing in the core of massive star. Finally, in the case of normal NS assumption, we obtain a constraint for the maximum mass of nonrotating NS $M_{rm TOV}=2.30^{+0.30}_{-0.18}$ $M_odot$. All of the uncertainties reported above are for 68.3% credible levels.
In this work we investigate protoneutron star properties within a modified version of the quark coupling model (QMC) that incorporates a omega-rho interaction plus kaon condensed matter at finite temperature. Fixed entropy and trapped neutrinos are t
aken into account. Our results are compared with the ones obtained with the GM1 parametrization of the non-linear Walecka model for similar values of the symmetry energy slope. Contrary to GM1, within the QMC the formation of low mass black-holes during cooling are not probable. It is shown that the evolution of the protoneutron star may include the melting of the kaon condensate driven by the neutrino diffusion, followed by the formation of a second condensate after cooling. The signature of this complex proccess could be a neutrino signal followed by a gamma ray burst. We have seen that both models can, in general, describe very massive stars.
