This review highlights symmetry connections in nuclear physics and astrophysics, suggesting broad implications for understanding matter and the universe.
Symmetry is a key principle in physics that links basic invariances to the structure of matter and the evolution of the universe. In this review, we use symmetry as a unifying thread connecting nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, and dense matter, and we highlight how symmetry-based arguments connect laboratory observables to astrophysical constraints. We present the essential concepts in a form accessible to a broad physics audience.
