Surface tension of dense matter at the chiral phase transition
Eduardo S. Fraga, Maurício Hippert, Andreas Schmitt
If a first-order phase transition separates nuclear and quark matter at large baryon density, an interface between these two phases has a nonzero surface tension. We calculate this…
Lepton-rich cold quark matter
J. C. Jiménez, E. S. Fraga
We explore protoneutron star matter in the framework of cold and dense QCD using the state-of-the-art perturbative equation of state including neutrinos fixed by a lepton fraction…
New class of compact stars: Pion stars
Bastian B. Brandt, Gergely Endrodi, Eduardo S. Fraga +3
We investigate the viability of a new type of compact star whose main constituent is a Bose-Einstein condensate of charged pions. Several different setups are considered, where a g…
