Coexistence of strange quark stars and neutron stars: metastability and nucleation in proto-neutron stars
Mirco Guerrini, Giuseppe Pagliara, Luca Passarella +1
If strange quark matter (SQM) is absolutely stable, hadronic neutron stars (NSs) and strange quark stars (QSs) may coexist in the so-called two-families scenario. A key issue is ex…
Is the coexistence of strange quark stars and hadronic stars favored by astrophysical data? A Bayesian analysis
Luca Passarella, Mirco Guerrini, Giuseppe Pagliara +2
Hadronic stars and strange quark stars could coexist within the so-called two-families scenario. In this respect, hadronic matter and strange quark matter correspond to two distinc…
On the formation of strange quark stars from supernova in compact binaries
L. M. Becerra, F. Cipolletta, A. Drago +4
Strange quark stars (SQSs), namely compact stars entirely composed of deconfined quark matter, are characterized by similar masses and compactness to neutron stars (NSs) and have b…
Framework for phase transitions between the Maxwell and Gibbs constructions at finite temperature
Constantinos Constantinou, Mirco Guerrini, Tianqi Zhao +2
The characteristics of the hadron-to-quark first-order phase transition differ depending on whether charge neutrality is locally or globally fulfilled. In -equilibrated matter,…
Role of thermal fluctuations in nucleation of three-flavor quark matter
Mirco Guerrini, Giuseppe Pagliara, Andrea Lavagno +1
We present a framework that aims to investigate the role of thermal fluctuations of the matter composition and color-superconductivity in the nucleation of three-flavor deconfined…
Thermal fluctuations of matter composition and quark nucleation in compact stars
Mirco Guerrini, Giuseppe Pagliara, Alessandro Drago +1
At the extreme densities reached in the core of neutron stars, it is possible that quark deconfined matter is produced. The formation of this new phase of strongly interacting matt…
