Nuclear matter refers to a theoretical model used in nuclear physics to describe the behavior of nucleons (protons and neutrons) in a dense medium. It assumes that these nucleons interact with one another through the strong nuclear force, and it is often studied in the context of nuclear structure and properties of atomic nuclei. Here are a few key points about nuclear matter: 1. **Density**: Nuclear matter is characterized by a high density, comparable to that found in atomic nuclei.
