Symmetry Energy Expansion with Strange Dense Matter

The Quantum Chromodynamics phase diagram at large densities and low temperature can be probed both by neutron stars and low-energy heavy-ion collisions. Heavy-ion collisions are nearly isospin symmetric systems whereas neutron stars are highly isospin asymmetric since they are neutron-rich. The symmetry energy expansion is used to connect these regimes across isospin asymmetry. However, the current symmetry energy expansion does not account for strange particles. Here we include a finite strangeness to calculate isospin asymmetry and find that the symmetry energy expansion has a skewness term in the presence of strangeness for the case of weak equilibrium.
