Slowly rotating pulsars
M. D. Alloy, D. P. Menezes
In the present work we investigate one possible variation on the usual static pulsars: the inclusion of rotation. We use a formalism proposed by Hartle and Thorne to calculate the…
Equation of State for supernova explosion simulations
D. P. Menezes, C. Providencia
In this work we present a detailed explanation of the construction of an appropriate equation of state (EoS) for nuclear astrophysics. We use a relativistic model in order to obtai…
Pair emission from bare magnetized strange stars
D. B. Melrose, R. Fok, D. P. Menezes
The dominant emission from bare strange stars is thought to be electron-positron pairs, produced through spontaneous pair creation (SPC) in a surface layer of electrons tied to the…
Quark stars within relativistic models
D. P. Menezes, C. Providencia, D. B. Melrose
Lately, it has been suggested that strange (quark) stars can be responsible for glitches and other observational features of pulsars. Some discussions on whether quark stars, if re…
Kaon condensation in the quark-meson coupling model and compact stars
D. P. Menezes, P. K. Panda, C. Providencia
The properties of neutron stars constituted of a crust of hadrons and an internal part of hadrons and kaon condensate are calculated within the quark-meson-coupling model. We have…
Strange star equations of state revisited
D. P. Menezes, D. B. Melrose
Motivated by recent suggestions that strange stars can be responsible for glitches and other observational features of pulsar, we review some possible equations of state and their…
