Framework for phase transitions between the Maxwell and Gibbs constructions at finite temperature

Constantinos Constantinou, Mirco Guerrini, Tianqi Zhao +2

The characteristics of the hadron-to-quark first-order phase transition differ depending on whether charge neutrality is locally or globally fulfilled. In -equilibrated matter,…

Quasi-normal g-modes of neutron stars with quarks

Tianqi Zhao, Constantinos Constantinou, Prashanth Jaikumar +1

Quasi-normal oscillation modes of neutron stars provide a means to probe their interior composition using gravitational wave astronomy. We compute the frequencies and damping times…

The effect of charge, isospin, and strangeness in the QCD phase diagram critical end point

Krishna Aryal, Constantinos Constantinou, Ricardo L. S. Farias +1

In this work, we discuss the deconfinement phase transition to quark matter in hot/dense matter. We {examine} the effect that different charge fractions, isospin fractions, net str…

-modes of neutron stars with hadron-to-quark crossover transitions

Constantinos Constantinou, Sophia Han, Prashanth Jaikumar +1

We perform the first study of the principal core -mode oscillation in hybrid stars containing quark matter, utilizing a crossover model for the hadron-to-quark transition inspir…

g-mode Oscillations in Hybrid Stars: A Tale of Two Sounds

Prashanth Jaikumar, Alexandra Semposki, Madappa Prakash +1

We study the principal core g-mode oscillation in hybrid stars containing quark matter and find that they have an unusually large frequency range ( 200 - 600 Hz) compared…

Deconfinement Phase Transition under Chemical Equilibrium

Veronica Dexheimer, Krishna Aryal, Madison Wolf +2

In this work, we investigate how the assumption of chemical equilibrium with leptons affects the deconfinement phase transition to quark matter. This is done within the framework o…
