Pure hadronic compact stars, above a threshold value of their gravitational mass (central pressure), are metastable to the conversion to quark stars (hybrid or strange stars). In this paper, we present a systematic study of the metastability of pure hadronic compact stars using different relativistic models for the equation of state (EoS). In particular, we compare results for the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model with those for the Glendenning--Moszkowski parametrization of the non-linear Walecka model (NLWM). For QMC model, we find large values ($M_{cr} = 1.6$ -- $1.9 M_odot$) for the critical mass of the hadronic star sequence and we find that the formation of a quark star is only possible with a soft quark matter EoS. For the Glendenning--Moszkowski parametrization of the NLWM, we explore the effect of different hyperon couplings on the critical mass and on the stellar conversion energy. We find that increasing the value of the hyperon coupling constants shifts the bulk transition point for quark deconfinement to higher densities, increases the stellar metastability threshold mass and the value of the critical mass, and thus makes the formation of quark stars less likely. For the largest values of the hyperon couplings we find a critical mass which may be as high as 1.9 - 2.1 $M_odot$. These stellar configurations, which contain a large central hyperon fraction ($f_{Y,cr} sim 30 %$), would be able to describe highly-massive compact stars, such as the one associated to the millisecond pulsars PSR B1516+02B with a mass $M = 1.94^{+ 0.17}_{- 0.19} M_{odot}$.
We study the axion cooling of neutron stars within the Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitsky (DFSZ) model, which allows for tree level coupling of electrons to the axion {and locks the Peccei-Quinn charges of fermions via an angle parameter}. This exten
Strong interaction physics under extreme conditions of high temperature and/or density is of central interest in modern nuclear physics for experimentalists and theorists alike. In order to investigate such systems, model approaches that include hadr
We investigate systematically the quark-hadron mixed phase in dense stellar matter, and its influence on compact star structures. The properties of quark matter and hadronic matter are fixed based on various model predictions. Beside adopting constan
The properties of neutron stars constituted of a crust of hadrons and an internal part of hadrons and kaon condensate are calculated within the quark-meson-coupling model. We have considered stars with nucleons only in the hadron phase and also stars
We conjecture and verify a set of universal relations between global parameters of hot and fast-rotating compact stars, including a relation connecting the masses of the mass-shedding (Kepler) and static configurations. We apply these relations to th
