Primordial Black Holes Formation Beyond the Standard Cosmic QCD Transition

Maël Gonin, Oleksii Ivanytskyi, David Blaschke +1

We review the role of primordial black holes (PBHs) for illuminating the dark ages of the cosmological evolution and as dark matter (DM) candidates. We elucidate the role of phase…

Color-superconducting quarkyonic matter

Christoph Gärtlein, Oleksii Ivanytskyi, Violetta Sagun +1

We explore the role of color superconductivity in quarkyonic matter under the conditions of color and electric neutrality at - and strong equilibrium, as relevant for neutron s…

Rapidly Spinning Massive Pulsars as an Indicator of Quark Deconfinement

Christoph Gärtlein, Violetta Sagun, Oleksii Ivanytskyi +2

We study rotating hybrid stars, with particular emphasis on the effect of spin on the deconfinement phase transition and star properties. Our analysis is based on a hybrid equation…

Bayesian inference favors quark matter in neutron star interiors

Alexander Ayriyan, Oleksii Ivanytskyi, David Blaschke

We perform a physics-informed Bayesian analyses of the equation of state of hybrid neutron stars that incorporates color-flavor-locked quark matter modeled by a three-flavor non-lo…

Fastest spinning millisecond pulsars: indicators for quark matter in neutron stars?

Christoph Gärtlein, Violetta Sagun, Oleksii Ivanytskyi +2

We study rotating hybrid stars, with a particular emphasis on the effect of a deconfinement phase transition on their properties at high spin. Our analysis is based on a hybrid equ…
