Vortices and type-I superconductivity in neutron stars
Kirk B. W. Buckley, Max A. Metlitski, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
In a recent paper by Link, it was pointed out that the the standard picture of the neutron star core, composed of a mixture of a neutron superfluid and a proton type-II superconduc…
Neutron Stars as Type-I Superconductors
Kirk B. W. Buckley, Max A. Metlitski, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
In a recent paper by Link, it was pointed out that the standard picture of the neutron star core composed of a mixture of a neutron superfluid and a proton type-II superconductor i…
Drum vortons in high density QCD
Kirk B. W. Buckley, Max A. Metlitski, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
Recently it was shown that high density QCD supports of number of topological defects. In particular, there are U(1)_Y strings that arise due to K^0 condensation that occurs when t…
Vortons in the SO(5) model of high temperature superconductivity
Kirk B. W. Buckley, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
It has been shown that superconducting vortices with antiferromagnetic cores arise within Zhang's SO(5) model of high temperature supercondictivity. Similar phenomena where the sym…
Superconducting K strings in high density QCD
Kirk B. W. Buckley, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
Recently it has been argued that the ground state of high density QCD is likely be a combination of the CFL-phase along with condensation of the K^0 field. This state spontaneously…
Classical stability of U(1)_A domain walls in dense matter QCD
Kirk B. W. Buckley
It was recently shown that there exists metastable U(1)_A domain wall configurations in high-density QCD (μ>> 1 GeV). In the following we will assess the stability of such non-triv…
