Equation of state for nuclear matter with the variational method

Equation of state (EOS) based on the variational many-body theory with realistic nuclear forces is provided. For uniform matter, the EOS is constructed with the cluster variational method starting from the Argonne v18 two-body nuclear potential and the Urbana IX three-body nuclear potential. Non-uniform nuclear matter is treated in the Thomas-Fermi approximation. Alpha particle mixing is also taken into account. See Togashi et al., Nucl. Phys. A 961 (2017) 78 for details. This EOS table is open for general use in any studies for nuclear physics and astrophysics, provided that our paper is referred to in your publication.
