A self-consistent single-fluid framework for neutron stars admixed with mirror dark matter

Adamu Issifu, Constança Providência, Franciele M. da Silva +2

We develop a self-consistent framework based on a contact vector current-current interaction that couples the chemical potentials of both sectors through mutual mean-field shifts,…

Rotational enhancement and stability of protoquark stars during thermal evolution

Adamu Issifu, Andreas Konstantinou, Prashant Thakur +1

We present the first systematic study of rigidly rotating protoquark stars based on isentropic equations of state (EOS) within the density-dependent quark mass (DDQM) framework. Us…

Rotational effects in quark stars: comparing different models

Adamu Issifu, Andreas Konstantinou, Franciele M. da Silva +1

We investigate the rotational properties of self-bound strange quark stars using two representative quark matter equations of state (EOS): the vector MIT bag model and the density-…

Dark Matter Heating in Evolving Proto-Neutron Stars: A Two-Fluid Approach

Adamu Issifu, Prashant Thakur, Davood Rafiei Karkevandi +4

Neutron stars (NSs) provide a unique laboratory to probe dark matter (DM) through its gravitational imprint on stellar evolution. We use a two-fluid framework with non-annihilating…

Glueballs Confinement and Cosmological Phase Transitions

Adamu Issifu, Julio C. M. Rocha, Francisco A. Brito +1

We develop a unified framework in which the dynamics of a scalar glueball field, originating from phenomenological nonperturbative QCD confinement, simultaneously governs the decon…

Radial and Non-Radial Oscillations of Protoneutron Stars with Hyperonic Composition

Prashant Thakur, Adamu Issifu, Ishfaq Ahmad Rather +2

This paper explores radial and non-radial oscillations of protoneutron stars (PNSs) as they evolve from hot, neutrino-rich configurations through deleptonization to cold, catalyzed…
