Rapidly rotating strange stars for a new equation of state of strange quark matter
I. Bombaci, A. V. Thampan, B. Datta
For a new equation of state of strange quark matter, we construct equilibrium sequences of rapidly rotating strange stars in general relativity. The sequences are the normal and su…

Temperature Profiles of Accretion Disks around Rapidly Rotating Neutron Stars in General Relativity and Implications for Cygnus X-2
S. Bhattacharyya, A. V. Thampan, R. Misra +1
We calculate the temperature profiles of (thin) accretion disks around rapidly rotating neutron stars (with low surface magnetic fields), taking into account the full effects of ge…

Conversion of neutron stars to strange stars as the central engine of gamma-ray bursts
Ignazio Bombaci, Bhaskar Datta
We study the conversion of a neutron star to a strange star as a possible energy source for gamma-ray bursts. We use different recent models for the equation of state of neutron st…
