Long Gamma Ray Bursts from Quark Stars | P. Haensel

9 Jan 2007 | Abstract: | If strange quark matter (SQM) is the true ground state of hadronic matter, then conversion of neutron stars (NS) into quark stars (QS) could release some 10^{53} erg. We describe a scenario of burning of a NS into a hot, differentially rotating QS. Emission of released non-baryonic energy through the QS surface is discussed. The role of magnetobuoyancy of SQM is mentioned. The outflow of gamma e+ e- lasting for up to ~1000 s could be at the origin of long GRBs. Advantages of hot, differentially rotating QS as an inner engine of long GRBs are reviewed. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701258 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
