Neutron matter - Quark matter phase transition and Quark star
We consider the neutron matter quark matter phase transition along with possible existence of hybrid quark stars. The equation of state for neutron matter is obtained using a nonperturbative method with pion dressing of the neutron matter and an analysis similar to that of symmetric nuclear matter. The quark matter sector is treated perturbatively in the small distance domain. For bag constant ...
متن کاملStrangeness Nucleation in Neutron Star Matter
We study the transition from npe-type nuclear matter (consisting of neutrons, protons, and electrons) to matter containing strangeness, using a Walecka-type model predicting a first-order kaon-condensate phase transition. We examine the free energy of droplets of K-matter as the density, temperature, and neutrino fraction are varied. Langer nucleation rate theory is then used to approximate the...
متن کاملNucleation of quark matter bubbles in neutron stars.
The thermal nucleation of quark matter bubbles inside neutron stars is examined for various temperatures which the star may realistically encounter during its lifetime. It is found that for a bag constant less than a critical value, a very large part of the star will be converted into the quark phase within a fraction of a second. Depending on the equation of state for neutron star matter and s...
متن کاملNucleation of quark matter in neutron stars cores
We consider the general conditions of quark droplets formation in high density neutron matter. The growth of the quark bubble (assumed to contain a sufficiently large number of particles) can be described by means of a Fokker-Planck equation. The dynamics of the nucleation essentially depends on the physical properties of the medium it takes place. The conditions for quark bubble formation are ...
متن کاملQuantum Nucleation of Two-Flavor Quark Matter in Neutron Stars
Rates for nucleation of two-flavor quark matter in a neutron star core, originally composed of nuclear matter in β equilibrium, are calculated at zero temperature by a quantum tunneling analysis incorporating the electrostatic energy. We find that a nucleated droplet would develop into bulk matter due to electron screening effects. ∗) E-mail address: [email protected] ∗∗) E-mail...
