Early deconfinement of asymptotically conformal color-superconducting quark matter in neutron stars
Oleksii Ivanytskyi, David Blaschke, Tobias Fischer +1
We present a relativistic density functional approach to color superconducting quark matter that mimics quark confinement by a fast growth of the quasiparticle selfenergy in the co…
Early quark deconfinement in compact star astrophysics and heavy-ion collisions
Oleksii Ivanytskyi, David Blaschke, Tobias Fischer +1
Based on a recently developed relativistic density functional approach to color-superconducting quark matter and a novel quark-hadron transition construction which phenomenological…
Effects of a strong phase transition on supernova explosions, compact stars and their mergers
Andreas Bauswein, David Blaschke, Tobias Fischer
We outline a theoretical approach supporting strong phase transitions from normal nuclear matter to the deconfined quark-gluon plasma, in the equation of state (EOS) for compact st…
Towards a Unified Quark-Hadron Matter Equation of State for Applications in Astrophysics and Heavy-Ion Collisions
Niels-Uwe F. Bastian, David Blaschke, Tobias Fischer +1
We outline an approach to a unified equation of state for quark-hadron matter on the basis of a derivable approach to the generalized Beth-Uhlenbeck equation of state for a clu…
Vector-Interaction-Enhanced Bag Model
Mateusz Cierniak, Thomas Klähn, Tobias Fischer +1
A commonly applied quark matter model in astrophysics is the thermodynamic bag model (tdBAG). The original MIT bag model approximates the effect of quark confinement, but does not…
Consequences of simultaneous chiral symmetry breaking and deconfinement for the isospin symmetric phase diagram
Tobias Fischer, Thomas Klähn, Matthias Hempel
The thermodynamic bag model (tdBag) has been applied widely to model quark matter properties in both heavy-ion and astrophysics communities. Several fundamental physics aspects are…
