Neutrino emissivity and bulk viscosity of iso-CSL quark matter in neutron stars
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present results for neutrino emissivities and bulk viscosities of a two-flavor color superconducting quark matter phase with isotropic color-spin-locked (iso-CSL) single-flavor pairing which fulfill the constraints on quark matter derived from cooling and rotational evolution of compact stars. We compare with results for the phenomenologically successful, but yet heuristic 2SC+X phase.

The quarks are regarded as quasiparticles, which acquire an effective mass generated by the interaction with the other quarks of the dense system. The bulk viscosity is re-expressed in the case of interacting strange quark matter. We find that the viscosity is a few∼tens times larger than that of non-interacting quark gas due to the small correction of medium effect to the equation of state. Th...
متن کاملNeutrino Emissivity of Dense Stars
The neutrino emissivity of compact stars is investigated in this work. We consider stars consisting of nuclear as well as quark matter for this purpose. Different models are used to calculate the composition of nuclear and quark matter and the neutrino emissivity. Depending on the model under consideration, the neutrino emissivity of nuclear as well as quark matter varies over a wide range. We ...
متن کاملBulk viscosity in nuclear and quark matter: a short review
The history and recent progresses in the study of bulk viscosity in nuclear and quark matter are reviewed. The constraints from baryon number conservation and electric neutrality in quark matter on particle densities and fluid velocity divergences are discussed. The time scale for damping of the vibration and of the gravitational radiation driven instability in neutron stars is crucial to the s...
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 کاملNeutrino Pair Emission from Cooper Pair Breaking and Recombination in Superfluid Quark Matter
For the low energy Standard Model neutrino-matter interactions, we calculate neutrino pair (νν̄) emissivites in superfluid quark matter. Just below the critical temperature, Cooper pairs continuously break and recombine, resulting in the emission of νν̄ pairs with a rate that greatly exceeds the standard quark modified Urca and bremsstrahlung rates. At the same baryon density in baryonic and quar...
