Compact stars with a quark core within NJL model

arXiv:1001.3169 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.82.015809

Abstract

An ultraviolet cutoff dependent on the chemical potential as proposed by Casalbuoni {\it et al} is used in the su(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The model is applied to the description of stellar quark matter and compact stars. It is shown that with a new cutoff parametrization it is possible to obtain stable hybrid stars with a quark core. A larger cutoff at finite densities leads to a partial chiral symmetry restoration of quark at lower densities. A direct consequence is the onset of the quark in stellar matter at lower densities and a softening of the equation of state.
