Two solar-mass compact stars: structure, composition, and cooling
Armen Sedrakian
I discuss the structure and composition of massive (two solar-mass) neutron stars containing hypernuclear and deconfined quark matter in color superconducting states. Stable config…
Kubo formulas for relativistic fluids in strong magnetic fields
Xu-Guang Huang, Armen Sedrakian, Dirk H. Rischke
Magnetohydrodynamics of strongly magnetized relativistic fluids is derived in the ideal and dissipative cases, taking into account the breaking of spatial symmetries by a quantizin…
Composition and stability of hybrid stars with hyperons and quark color-superconductivity
Luca Bonanno, Armen Sedrakian
The recent measurement of a solar-mass pulsar places a stringent lower bound on the maximum mass of compact stars and therefore challenges the existence of any agent…
BCS-BEC crossover in spatially modulated fermionic condensates
Armen Sedrakian
Several novel multi-component fermionic condensates show universal behavior under imbalance in the number of fermionic species. Here I discuss their phase structure, thermodynamics…
Vortex formation in a rotating two-component Fermi gas
Harmen J. Warringa, Armen Sedrakian
A two-component Fermi gas with attractive s-wave interactions forms a superfluid at low temperatures. When this gas is confined in a rotating trap, fermions can unpair at the edges…
Thermal evolution of massive compact objects with dense quark cores
Daniel Hess, Armen Sedrakian
We examine the thermal evolution of a sequence of compact objects containing low-mass hadronic and high-mass quark-hadronic stars constructed from a microscopically motivated equat…
