Properties of strange quark matter and strange quark stars [PDF]
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021 A Polyakov chiral $$\text {SU(3)}$$ SU(3) quark mean-field (PCQMF) model is applied to study the properties of strange quark matter (SQM) and strange quark star (SQS) in $$\beta $$ β -equilibrium.

Searching for strange quark matter objects among white dwarfs
Physics Letters B, 2022 The ground state of matter may be strange quark matter (SQM), not hadronic matter. A whole sequence of SQM objects, ranging from strange quark stars and strange quark dwarfs to strange quark planets, can stably exist according to this SQM hypothesis.

Repeating fast radio bursts from collapses of the crust of a strange star [PDF]
The Innovation, 2021 Summary: Strange stars (SSs) are compact objects made of deconfined quarks. It is hard to distinguish SSs from neutron stars as a thin crust composed of normal hadronic matter may exist and obscure the whole surface of the SS.

Search for Strange Quark Matter and Nuclearites on Board the International Space Station (SQM-ISS): A Future Detector to Search for Massive, Non-Relativistic Objects in Space [PDF]
SensorsSQM-ISS is a detector that will search from the International Space Station for massive particles possibly present among the cosmic rays. Among them, we mention strange quark matter, Q-Balls, lumps of fermionic exotic compact stars, Primordial Black ...

Kantowski-Sachs Cosmological model with quark and strange quark matter in f(R) theory of gravity
Open Physics, 2015 In this paper we have studied the Kantowski- Sachs cosmological model with the quark and strange quark matter in the f (R) theory of gravity. The general solutions of the field equations are obtained by assuming the physical condition shear scalar σ is ...

Confronting Strange Stars with Compact-Star Observations and New Physics
Universe, 2023 Strange stars ought to exist in the universe according to the strange quark matter hypothesis, which states that matter made of roughly equal numbers of up, down, and strange quarks could be the true ground state of baryonic matter rather than ordinary ...

Gravitational Waves from Strange Star Core–Crust Oscillation
Universe, 2022 According to the strange quark matter hypothesis, pulsars may actually be strange stars composed of self-bound strange quark matter. The normal matter crust of a strange star, unlike that of a normal neutron star, is supported by a strong electric field.

Quark Matter May Not Be Strange [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2018 If quark matter is energetically favored over nuclear matter at zero temperature and pressure then it has long been expected to take the form of strange quark matter (SQM), with comparable amounts of $u$, $d$, $s$ quarks. The possibility of quark matter with only $u$, $d$ quarks ($ud$QM) is usually dismissed because of the observed stability of ...

The crystallography of strange quark matter [PDF]
Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2006 Cold three-flavor quark matter at large (but not asymptotically large) densities may exist as a crystalline color superconductor. We explore this possibility by calculating the gap parameter Delta and free energy Omega(Delta) for possible crystal structures within a Ginzburg-Landau approximation, evaluating Omega(Delta) to order Delta^6.

Boiling of strange-quark matter [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1991 Boiling of strange-quark matter is studied assuming baryon chemical equilibrium between a quark phase described by the bag model, and a hadron phase described by Walecka's mean-field theory. Boiling of quark nuggets at high temperatures is shown to be much less efficient than previously believed. Thus quark nuggets with large baryon numbers may survive
