Influence of Effective Nucleon Mass on Equation of State for Supernova Simulations and Neutron Stars by Shuying Li, Junbo Pang, Hong Shen, Jinniu Hu, Kohsuke Sumiyoshi

“…The study introduces a new RMF parameter set, TM1m, which is a modification of the TM1e model with an adjusted effective mass, maintaining the saturation properties of nuclear matter. The TM1m model, with a larger effective mass ratio ( M ^* / M  ~ 0.8) compared to the TM1e model ( M ^* / M  ~ 0.63), is employed to construct a new EOS table, EOS5. …”
