Implications of CREX on the Dense Matter Equation of State

The experimental results for the CREX experiment suggest a small weak charge radius in $^{48}$Ca. This implies that its neutron skin $R_n-R_p$ is $\textit{small}$. This has a large tension with the results of the PREX-2 experiment, which measure a large weak charge radius in $^{208}$Pb thereby also suggesting it has a $\textit{large}$ neutron skin. In this talk, I will discuss the assumptions and analysis of CREX and what conclusions we can draw from it which impact the dense matter equation of state. The connection to neutron stars will also be discussed.
