Magnetization of Color-Flavor Locked Matter
arXiv:0710.2445 · doi:10.1142/9789812797049_0071
Abstract
We show that the magnetization in color-flavor locked superconductors can be so strong that homogeneous quark matter becomes metastable for a wide range of magnetic field values. This indicates that magnetic domains or other type of magnetic inhomogeneities can be present in the quark cores of magnetars.
