Effect of Muons on the Phase Transition in Magnetised Proto-Neutron Star Matter

arXiv:astro-ph/0207134 · doi:10.1142/S0218271802002372

Abstract

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.
