Magnetized strange quark matter and magnetized strange quark stars
R. Gonzalez Felipe, A. Perez Martinez, H. Perez Rojas +1
Strange quark matter could be found in the core of neutron stars or forming strange quark stars. As is well known, these astrophysical objects are endowed with strong magnetic fiel…
Quark stars and quantum-magnetically induced collapse
A. Perez Martinez, H. Perez Rojas, H. J. Mosquera Cuesta +2
Quark matter is expected to exist in the interior of compact stellar objects as neutron stars or even the more exotic strange stars, based on the Bodmer-Witten conjecture. Bare str…
Primordial bubbles of colour superconducting quark matter
Luis Masperi, Milva Orsaria
We analyze the possibility that bubbles of quark matter surviving the confinement phase transition might have become colour superconducting due to the enormous compression suffered…
Comparison of UHECR spectra from necklaces and vortons
Luis Masperi, Milva Orsaria
Cosmic rays of energy higher than 10^19 eV may be explained by topological defects produced in the early stages of universe. Two suitable alternatives are: necklaces formed by magn…
Hard component of ultra-high energy cosmic rays and vortons
Luis Masperi, Milva Orsaria
Observed events of ultra-high energy cosmic rays may indicate a hard component for the energy spectrum of their flux, which might have origin in the decay of long-lived vortons pre…
Baryogenesis through gradual collapse of vortons
Luis Masperi, Milva Orsaria
We evaluate the matter-antimatter asymmetry produced by emission of fermionic carriers from vortons which are assumed to be destabilized at the electroweak phase transition.The vel…
