Definitely, an affirmative answer to this question would have implications of fundamental importance for astrophysics (a new class of compact stars), and for the physics of strong interactions (deconfined phase of quark matter, and strange matter hypothesis). In the present work, we use observational data for the newly discovered millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 and for the atoll source 4U 1728-34 to constrain the radius of the underlying compact stars. Comparing the mass-radius relation of these two compact stars with theoretical models for both neutron stars and strange stars, we argue that a strange star model is more consistent with SAX J1808.4-3658 and 4U 1728-34, and suggest that they are likely strange star candidates.
This paper provides an overview of the possible role of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QDC) for neutron stars and strange stars. The fundamental degrees of freedom of QCD are quarks, which may exist as unconfined (color superconducting) particles in the co
The role of the strange quarks on the low-energy interactions of the proton can be probed through the strange electromagnetic form factors. Knowledge of these form factors provides essential input for parity-violating processes and contributes to the
In 2010 the first planet was discovered around star HD 34445. Recently, another five planets were announced orbiting the same star. It is a rather dense multi-planet system with some of its planets having separations of fractions of an au and minimum
We present a new technique for observing the strange quark matter distillation process based on unlike particle correlations. A simulation is presented based on the scenario of a two-phase thermodynamical evolution model.
We present results from an HST/ACS imaging study of the metal-poor blue compact dwarf galaxy SBS 1415+437. It has been argued previously that this is a very young galaxy that started to form stars only less than 100 Myr ago. However, we find that the
