Isentropic hybrid stars in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model: effects of neutrino trapping
Andrea Sabatucci, Armen Sedrakian
Binary neutron star mergers and proto-neutron stars provide unique environments where dense matter is hot, lepton rich, and potentially undergoes a transition from hadronic to deco…
Spin effects in superfluidity, neutron matter and neutron stars
Armen Sedrakian, Peter B. Rau
We review selected aspects of the interior physics of compact stars, focusing on the microscopic and macroscopic manifestations of spin, magnetic fields, and nucleonic superfluidit…
Superconductivity in magnetars: Exploring type-I and type-II states in toroidal magnetic fields
Mayusree Das, Armen Sedrakian, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay
We present a first two-dimensional general-relativistic analysis of superconducting regions in axially symmetric highly magnetized neutron star (magnetar) models with toroidal magn…
Strongly interacting matter in extreme magnetic fields
Prabal Adhikari, Martin Ammon, Sidney S. Avancini +58
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous across different physical systems of current interest; from the early Universe, compact astrophysical objects and heavy-ion collisions to condensed m…
Short-Range Correlations and Urca Process in Neutron Stars
Armen Sedrakian
Recent measurements of high-momentum correlated neutron-proton pairs at JLab suggest that the dense nucleonic component of the compact stars contains a fraction of high-momentum ne…
