Title
How to employ the LHC to study the equation of state of neutron stars
Abstract
The study of the strong interaction among hadrons is one of the frontiers of nuclear physics. These interactions drive the equation of state of dense nuclear matter and hence are also connected to neutron stars. In this talk we show how p+p collisions at 13 TeV measured by ALICE at the LHC have been exploited to study several hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interactions. The obtained results allowed us to understand better the nature of the strong interaction and to obtain more solid equations of state for neutron stars.
