The Symmetry Energy Problem Constraining the density dependence of the symmetry energy is a complex problem- The Nuclei Always Solve the Problem Exactly For Us There is always a model dependence Requires close synergy between theorists and experimentalists
While low density situation would appear to be easier to constrain- cluster formation changes the medium (leads to additional complexity opportunity)
