Abstract
This talk reviews current understanding of the states of matter in the liquid interior of neutron stars — including nuclear matter, pion and kaon condensation, and normal and strange quark matter — and their effect on neutron star structure and dynamics. Learning about high density matter in the laboratory by means of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is also discussed.
