Stability of thin-shell interfaces inside compact stars

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-01-07 v2 Solar and Stellar Astrophysics Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We use the thin-shell Darmois-Israel formalism to model and assess the stability of the interfaces separating phases, e.g. the core and the crust, within compact stars. We exemplify the relevance and non-triviality of this treatment in the simplest case of an incompressible star, in constant pressure phase transitions, and in the case of strange quark stars with crust.
