14 May 2003 | Journal: | J.Phys. G30 (2004) S471-S478 | Subject: | astro-ph hep-ph nucl-th | Affiliation: | MPE Garching | Abstract: | It has been predicted that quark and hybrid stars, containing strange quark matter in their core, have a significantly smaller radius than ordinary neutron stars. Preliminary X-ray observations of isolated neutron stars indicated a surprisingly small radius consistent with quark matter in the interior of the star. However, a new analysis of the data led to a radius corresponding to an ordinary neutron star. In the present talk we will discuss theoretical calculations of the mass-radius relation for quark and hybrid stars, taking into account medium effects in quark matter, and report on recent X-ray observations by Chandra and XMM and their latest interpretation. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0305249 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
