Thermodynamics of quark matter with multiquark clusters in an effective Beth-Uhlenbeck type approach

D. Blaschke, M. Cierniak, O. Ivanytskyi +1

We describe multiquark clusters in quark matter within a Beth-Uhlenbeck approach in a background gluon field coupled to the underlying chiral quark dynamics using the Polyakov gaug…

Special point "trains" in the M-R diagram of hybrid stars

David Blaschke, Alexander Ayriyan, Mateusz Cierniak +3

We present a systematic investigation of the possible locations for the special point (SP), a unique feature of hybrid neutron stars in the mass-radius diagram. The study is perfor…

Locating the special point of hybrid neutron stars

Mateusz Cierniak, David Blaschke

The special point is a feature unique to models of hybrid neutron stars. It represents a location on their mass--radius sequences that is insensitive to the phase transition densit…

Universal relations for rapidly rotating cold and hot hybrid star

Noshad Khosravi Largani, Tobias Fischer, Armen Sedrakian +3

Several global parameters of compact stars are related via empirical relations, which are (nearly) independent of the underlying equation of state (EoS) of dense matter and, theref…

Hybrid neutron stars in the mass-radius diagram

Mateusz Cierniak, David Blaschke

We present a systematic investigation of the possible locations for the special point (SP), a unique feature of hybrid neutron stars in the mass-radius. The study is performed with…

Studying the onset of deconfinement with multi-messenger astronomy of neutron stars

David Blaschke, Mateusz Cierniak

With the first multi-messenger observation of a binary neutron star merger (GW170817) new constraints became available for masses and radii of neutron stars. We introduce a class o…

Chaos in QCD? Gap equations and their fractal properties

T. Klaehn, L. C. Loveridge, M. Cierniak

We discuss how iterative solutions of QCD inspired gap-equations at finite chemical potential show domains of chaotic behavior as well as non-chaotic domains which represent one or…

The special point on the hybrid star mass--radius diagram and its multi--messenger implications

Mateusz Cierniak, David Blaschke

We show the existence and investigate the location of the special point (SP) in which hybrid neutron star mass-radius (M-R) curves have to cross each other when they belong to a cl…

Equation of state constraints from the threshold binary mass for prompt collapse of neutron star mergers

Andreas Bauswein, Sebastian Blacker, Vimal Vijayan +7

Using hydrodynamical simulations for a large set of high-density matter equations of state (EoSs) we systematically determine the threshold mass M_thres for prompt black-hole forma…

Impact of the Nuclear Equation of State on the Stability of Hybrid Neutron Stars

Mateusz Cierniak, Tobias Fischer, Niels-Uwe Bastian +2

We construct a set of equations of state (EoS) of dense and hot matter with a 1st order phase transition from a hadronic system to a deconfined quark matter state. In this two-phas…

Vector-Interaction-Enhanced Bag Model

Mateusz Cierniak, Thomas Klähn, Tobias Fischer +1

A commonly applied quark matter model in astrophysics is the thermodynamic bag model (tdBAG). The original MIT bag model approximates the effect of quark confinement, but does not…

The state of matter in simulations of core-collapse supernovae -- Reflections and recent developments

Tobias Fischer, Niels-Uwe Bastian, David Blaschke +7

In this review article we discuss selected developments regarding the role of the equation of state (EOS) in simulations of core-collapse supernovae. There are no first-principle c…

Strange matter prospects within the string-flip model

Niels-Uwe F. Bastian, David B. Blaschke, Mateusz Cierniak +4

In this contribution we extend the recently developed two-flavor quark-matter string-flip model by including strange quarks. We discuss implications for compact stars.

Exploring the In-Medium Momentum Dependence of the Dynamical Quark Mass

Mateusz Cierniak, Thomas Klähn

We review the two standard equations of states based on the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model and the thermodynamic bag (tdBag) model for dense, cold quark matter from a perspective b…
