Quark star phenomenology

Freedman, Barry, McLerran, Larry·1978·Physical Review D

Abstract

We analyze models of quark matter appropriate to the description of matter at densities found within neutron stars. We consider in detail two models: quantum chromodynamics with a bag constant $B=56$ MeV/${\mathrm{fm}}^{3}$, and quantum chromodynamics with $B=0$. Both models are consistent with the strength of the quark-quark force found in high-energy particle phenomenology. The pressure, energy density per baryon, and baryon density are calculated. An interesting prediction of our models is that a quark star should have strangeness comparable to its baryon number.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
