Recycling strange stars to millisecond periods
Recycling strange stars to millisecond periods is studied within the framework of general relativity. We employ equations of state of strange quark matter based on the MIT Bag Model, with massive strange quarks and lowest order QCD interactions. The presence of the crust of normal matter is taken into account, with a bottom density assumed to be equal to the neutron-drip one. The calculations a...
متن کاملFrom Neutron Stars to Strange Stars
It is generally agreed that the tremendous densities reached in the centers of neutron stars provide a high pressure environment in which numerous particles processes are likely to compete with each other. These processes range from the generation of hyperons to quark deconfinement to the formation of kaon condensates and H-matter [1]. Another striking possibility concerns the formation of abso...
متن کاملSuperbursts from Strange Stars
Recent models of carbon ignition on accreting neutron stars predict superburst ignition depths that are an order of magnitude larger than observed. We explore a possible solution to this problem, that the compact stars in low mass X-ray binaries that have shown superbursts are in fact strange stars with a crust of normal matter. We calculate the properties of superbursts on strange stars, and t...
متن کاملAre Pulsars Bare Strange Stars?
It is believed that pulsars are neutron stars or strange stars with crusts. However we suggest here that pulsars may be bare strange stars (i.e., strange stars without crust). Due to rapid rotation and strong emission, young strange stars produced in supernova explosions should be bare when they act as radio pulsars. Because of strong magnetic field, two polar-crusts would shield the polar caps...
متن کاملLow-mass bare strange stars
Strange stars with low masses are suggested to exist in reality, the origin of which could be via accretion-induced collapse (AIC) of white dwarfs. Such a strange star is likely bare, and would thus spin very fast, even to a period of < 0.1 ms. Strange stars with low masses may differ from those with solar-masses in various astrophysical appearances. Observations to test this “low-mass” idea ar...
