چکیده

We study the effect of inclusion of muons and the muon neutrinos on the phase transition from nuclear to quark matter in a magnetised proto-neutron star and compare our results with those obtained by us without the muons. We find that the inclusion of muons changes slightly the nuclear density at which transition occurs.However the dependence of this transition density on various chemical potentials, temperature and the magnetic field remains quantitatively the same.

Rigidly Rotating Strange Quark Star

The possibility of the existence of quark matter dates back to early seventies. Bodmer remarked that matter consisting of deconfined up, down and strange quarks could be the absolute ground state of matter at zero pressure and temperature. If this is true then objects made of such matter, so-called ”strange star”, could exist. There are several proposed mechanisms for formation of quark stars. ...

Effect of Magnetic Field on the Phase Transition from Nuclear Matter to Quark Matter during Proto-neutron Star Evolution

We have studied phase transition from hadron matter to quark matter in the presence of high magnetic fields incorporating the trapped electron neutrinos at finite temperatures. We have used the density dependent quark mass (DDQM) model for the quark phase while the hadron phase is treated in the frame-work of relativistic mean field theory. It is seen that the nuclear energy at phase transition...

Evolution of Proto–neutron Stars with Kaon Condensates

We present simulations of the evolution of a proto-neutron star in which kaon-condensed matter might exist, including the effects of finite temperature and trapped neutrinos. The phase transition from pure nucleonic matter to the kaon condensate phase is described using Gibbs’ rules for phase equilibrium, which permit the existence of a mixed phase. A general property of neutron stars containin...

Strangeness 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...

Kaon Condensation in Proto-Neutron Star Matter

We study the equation of state of kaon-condensed matter including the effects of temperature and trapped neutrinos. Several different field-theoretical models for the nucleon-nucleon and kaon-nucleon interactions are considered. It is found that the order of the phase transition to a kaon-condensed phase, and whether or not Gibbs’ rules for phase equilibrium can be satisfied in the case of a fi...
