To differentiate neutron star models by X-ray polarimetry [PDF]

Chin. Phys. Lett. 30 (2013) 059501, 2013
The nature of pulsar is still unknown because of non-perturbative effects of the fundamental strong interaction, and different models of pulsar inner structures are then suggested, either conventional neutron stars or quark stars. Additionally, a state of quark-cluster matter is conjectured for cold matter at supranuclear density, as a result pulsars ...

The Quest for the Quark‐Gluon Plasma From the Perspective of Dynamical Models of Relativistic Heavy‐Ion Collisions

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The physics of heavy‐ion collisions is one of the most exciting and challenging directions of science for the last four decades. On the theoretical side one deals with a non‐abelian field theory, while on the experimental side today's largest accelerators are needed to enable these studies.

The Curious Concept That Almost Nobody Seemed to Care About at First: Virtual Particles in the Post‐War Period**

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Radioactivity of quark nuggets

Journal of High Energy Physics
Quark nuggets Q Z A $$ {}_{\textrm{Z}}{}^{\textrm{A}}\textrm{Q} $$ , as Fermionic non-topological solitons, could have their mass per baryon smaller than ordinary nuclei and behave as exotic nuclei with different relations of atomic number and atomic ...

Quark deconfinement in neutron star cores and the ground state of neutral matter [PDF]

Eur.Phys.J.A34:153-160,2007, 2007
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. We use two realistic effective quark models, the three-flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model and the modified quark-meson coupling model, to describe the neutron star matter.

Human flaws and logical tools in engineering

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the limitations of human cognition, especially in engineering research, emphasizing the need for mathematical models and methods to guide decision‐making and theory validation. While human cognition excels in certain tasks, it is prone to biases that can distort our understanding.

Quark-Nova Explosion inside a Collapsar: Application to Gamma Ray Bursts

Advances in Astronomy, 2009
If a quark-nova occurs inside a collapsar, the interaction between the quark-nova ejecta (relativistic iron-rich chunks) and the collapsar envelope leads to features indicative of those observed in Gamma Ray Bursts.

Exercise limitations in amyloid cardiomyopathy assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing—A multicentre study

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1326-1335, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

The mixed phase quark core in massive hybrid stars

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
We investigate the properties of hybrid star and the mixed phase core to explore the radius ratio of the mixed phase in hybrid star. In the context of observed massive neutron stars (NSs), we examine the internal structure, phase transitions, and the ...
