The nuclear matter equation of state (EOS) is poorly known at the limit of high density and temperature. While this limit is not currently reached in laboratory settings, it is in neutron star interiors. In this talk, I will discuss an approach to probing the EOS using neutron star measurements. I will describe how neutron star mass and radius inferences from the NICER telescope and tidal...
