In recent years our understanding of neutron stars has advanced remarkably, thanks to
research converging from many directions. The importance of understanding neutron star …

Matter at high density and low temperature is expected to be a color superconductor, which
is a degenerate Fermi gas of quarks with a condensate of Cooper pairs near the Fermi …

Investigations of deconfined quark matter within NJL-type models are reviewed, focusing on
the regime of low temperatures and “moderate” densities, which is not accessible by …

The current status of theoretical studies on the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase
diagram at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential is reviewed with special …

We show that a hybrid (nuclear+ quark matter) star can have a mass-radius relationship very
similar to that predicted for a star made of purely nucleonic matter. We show this for a …

The chiral condensate, which is constant in vacuum, may become spatially modulated at
moderately high densities where in the traditional picture of the QCD phase diagram a first …

Several attempts have been made in the past decades to search for the true ground state of
the dense matter at sufficiently large densities and low temperatures via compact …

We construct an equation of state for massive neutron stars based on quantum
chromodynamics phenomenology. Our primary purpose is to delineate the relevant …
