Description
I will discuss whether correlations exist between the radius of neutron stars and various nuclear properties: nuclear parameters (symmetry energy, its slope, ...), neutron skin of neutron-rich nuclei and the difference in the charge radius of mirror nuclei. I will in particular point out that a careful treatment of the crust of neutron stars is critical when looking for correlations between the properties of neutron stars and the ones of nuclei and nuclear matter.
