Abstract
The appearance of quark matter in the centers of compact stars has a number of astrophysical implications. In this contribution I discuss the structure and stability of compact stars, gravitational radiation from non-axisymmetric deformations, and nucleation and dynamics of vortices (flux tubes) in the color superconducting phases.
