QUARK MATTER IN MASSIVE COMPACT STARS [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2011
The recent observation of the pulsar PSR J1614-2230 with a mass of 1.97 +/- 0.04 M_sun gives a strong constraint on the quark and nuclear matter equations of state (EoS). We explore the parameter ranges for a parameterized EoS for quark stars. We find that strange stars, made of absolutely stable strange quark matter, comply with the new constraint ...

On the Naturalistic Grounds of Grounding

Ratio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines whether grounding can be naturalized. We adopt a tripartite framework—Ocat (scientific catalogue of existents), Otyp (ontological types), and metaphysics (natures/modal profiles)—and show that classifying as such the relata of putative grounding claims forces a dilemma.

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 ...

Quark stars: features and findings [PDF]

The European Physical Journal C, 2006
Under extreme conditions of temperature and/or density, quarks and gluons are expected to undergo a deconfinement phase transition. While this is an ephemeral phenomenon at the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collider (BNL-RHIC), quark matter may exist naturally in the dense interior of neutron stars.

Impact of a 12‐week high‐intensity interval training intervention on cardiac structure and function after COVID‐19 at 12‐month follow‐up

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In patients previously hospitalised for COVID‐19, a 12‐week high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) intervention has previously been shown to increase left ventricular mass (LVM) immediately after the intervention. In the present study, we examined the effects of the same HIIT scheme on LVM, pulmonary diffusing capacity, symptom severity and ...

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.

Impact of exercise training on tumour‐infiltrating T cells in human prostate cancer: A secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial (PRO‐TEST)

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise training reduces tumour growth by increasing tumour‐infiltrating T‐cell density in preclinical models. However, it remains unknown whether exercise training can modify intratumoural T cells in humans.The aim of this study was to compare the effects of an exercise training intervention versus control on human prostate intratumoural T ...

Nonperturbative models of quark stars in f(R) gravity

Physics Letters B, 2015
Quark star models with realistic equation of state in nonperturbative f(R) gravity are considered. The mass-radius relation for f(R)=R+αR2 model is obtained.

Bed rest decreases resting skeletal muscle O2 uptake and resting energy expenditure in young and elderly subjects

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A decrease in resting muscle O2 uptake (V̇O2m${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}{\mathrm{m}}}}$) described during bed rest (BR) could determine a decreased whole‐body resting energy expenditure (REE), potentially useful during prolonged spaceflights. Two groups of recreationally active men (young [Y], n = 8, age 23 ± 5 years; elderly [E], n = 10, age ...

Strange Quark Stars — A Review [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2003
A pedagogical overview of strange quark matter and strange stars is presented. After a historical notation of the research and an introduction to quark matter, a major part is devoted to the physics and astrophysics of strange stars, with attention being paid to the possible ways by which neutron stars and strange stars can be distinguished in ...
