Color superconducting quark matter in compact stars
Matter just above nuclear density presents special challenges, both observational and theoretical. It is the densest state of which we have evidence in nature, but in terrestrial laboratories it can only be produced fleetingly and at high temperature over small volumes. We must therefore rely on astrophysical observations of compact stars to gather more indirect experimental information. Theore...
متن کاملCompact stars with color superconducting quark matter
We study compact stars that contain quark matter. We look at the effect of color superconductivity in the quark matter on the nuclear-quark matter transition density, mass-radius relationship, and the density discontinuity at the boundary between nuclear and quark matter. We find that color superconducting quark matter will occur in compact stars at values of the bag constant where ordinary qua...
متن کاملNeutron stars and the transition to color-superconducting quark matter
We explore the relevance of color superconductivity inside a possible quark matter core for the bulk properties of neutron stars. For the quark phase we use an Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) type model, extended to include diquark condensates. For the hadronic phase, a microscopic many-body model is adopted, with and without strangeness content. In our calculations, a sharp boundary is assumed betwee...
متن کاملEffects of quark matter and color superconductivity in compact stars
The equation of state for quark matter is derived for a nonlocal, chiral quark model within the mean field approximation. We investigate the effects of a variation of the form factors of the interaction on the phase diagram of quark matter under the condition of β equilibrium and charge neutrality. Special emphasis is on the occurrence of a diquark condensate which signals a phase transition to...
متن کاملColor-Neutral Superconducting Quark Matter
We investigate the consequences of enforcing local color neutrality on the color superconducting phases of quark matter by utilizing the Nambu-JonaLasinio model supplemented by diquark and the t’Hooft six-fermion interactions. In neutrino free matter at zero temperature, color neutrality guarantees that the number densities of u, d, and s quarks in the Color-Flavor-Locked (CFL) phase will be eq...
