Abstract
The Equation Of State of asymmetric nuclear matter is of fundamental importance for both nuclear physics and astrophysics. However, the present understanding of the EOS is limited, largely due to the poor knowledge of the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy. In fact, while considerable progress has been made recently in determining the behaviour of symmetry energy at sub-normal nuclear matter density, much more work is still needed to probe its behaviour at high density. The ASY-EOS experiment at GSI will measure elliptic flow (squeeze-out) of neutrons, protons and light complex particles in reactions of isospin asymmetric systems at pre-relativistic energies, in order to provide quantitative information on the density dependence of symmetry energy at densities larger than the saturation one.
