Nucleation of quark matter in neutron stars cores [PDF]
We consider the general conditions of quark droplets formation in high density neutron matter. The growth of the quark bubble (assumed to contain a sufficiently large number of particles) can be described by means of a Fokker-Planck equation.

Probing the composition of sub-millisecond rotating compact stars by r-modes instability [PDF]
We investigate the implications of the r-modes instability on the composition of a compact star rotating at a sub-millisecond period. In particular, the only viable astrophysical scenario for such an object, wich might present inside the Low Mass X-ray ...

Quark deconfinement in neutron star cores and the ground state of neutral matter
Whether or not deconfined quark phase exists in neutron star cores and represents the ground state of neutral matter at moderate densities are open questions.

Effects of quark matter and color superconductivity in compact stars [PDF]
The equation of state for quark matter is derived for a nonlocal, chiral quark model within the mean field approximation. We investigate the effects of a variation of the form factors of the interaction on the phase diagram of quark matter under the ...

Quark-Novae in massive binaries : a model for double-humped, hydrogen-poor, superluminous Supernovae
LSQ14bdq and SN 2006oz are super-luminous, hydrogen-poor, SNe with double-humped light curves. We show that a Quark-Nova (QN; explosive transition of the neutron star to a quark star) occurring in a massive binary, experiencing two Common Envelope (CE ...

Cooling Evolution of Hybrid Stars
The cooling of compact isolated objects for different values of the gravitational mass has been simulated for two alternative assumptions. One is that the interior of the star is purely hadronic and second that the star can have a rather large quark core.

Thermal Evolution and Light Curves of Young Bare Strange Stars [PDF]
The cooling of a young bare strange star is studied numerically by solving the equations of energy conservation and heat transport for both normal and superconducting strange quark matter inside the star.

Phase Structure of Compact Star in Modified Quark-Meson Coupling Model
The K$^-$ condensation and quark deconfinement phase transitions are investigated in the modified quark-meson coupling model. It is shown that K$^-$ condensation is suppressed because of the quark deconfinement when $B^{1/4}$1.68M$_{\odot}$ is confirmed,

The quark strange star in the enlarged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model [PDF]
The strange quark star is investigated within the enlarged SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL). The stable quark star exists till maximal configutation with rho_m=3.1, 10^15, g/cm^3 with M_m=1.61, M_Sun and R_m=8.74, km is reached.

Neutron stars and quark stars are not only characterized by their mass and radius, but also by how fast they spin, through their moment of inertia, and how much they can be deformed, through their Love number and quadrupole moment.
