Quark deconfinement and the duration of short Gamma Ray Bursts
Alessandro Drago, Andrea Lavagno, Brian Metzger +1
We propose a model for short duration gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs) based on the formation of a quark star after the merger of two neutron stars. We assume that the sGRB central engine…
DAFNE Consolidation Program and Operation with the KLOE-2 Detector
Catia Milardi, David Alesini, Maria Enrica Biagini +27
After a long preparatory phase, including a wide hardware consolidation program, the Italian lepton collider DAFNE, is now systematically delivering data to the KLOE-2 experiment.…
The scenario of two families of compact stars 2. Transition from hadronic to quark matter and explosive phenomena
Alessandro Drago, Giuseppe Pagliara
We will follow the two-families scenario described in the accompanying paper, in which compact stars having a very small radius and masses not exceeding about 1.5 are made…
The scenario of two families of compact stars 1. Equations of state, mass-radius relations and binary systems
Alessandro Drago, Andrea Lavagno, Giuseppe Pagliara +1
We present several arguments which favor the scenario of two coexisting families of compact stars: hadronic stars and quark stars. Besides the well known hyperon puzzle of the phys…
Analytic continuation of nucleon electromagnetic form factors in the time-like region
Pedro Alberto, Alessandro Drago, Alessio Mangoni +2
The possibility to compute nucleon electromagnetic form factors in the time-like region by analytic continuation of their space-like expressions has been explored in the framework…
Combustion of a hadronic star into a quark star: the turbulent and the diffusive regimes
Alessandro Drago, Giuseppe Pagliara
We argue that the full conversion of a hadronic star into a quark or a hybrid star occurs within two different regimes separated by a critical value of the density of the hadronic…
