Finite Temperature Quark Matter and Supernova Explosion

Astrophysics 2008-11-26 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We study the equation of state of quark matter at finite temperature, using a confinement model in which chiral symmetry remains broken in the deconfined phase. Implications for type II supernova explosion and for the structure and evolution of the proto-neutron star are discussed.
