We analyze the magnetic field evolution in dense quark matter with unbroken chiral symmetry, which can be found inside quark and hybrid stars. The magnetic field evolves owing to the chiral magnetic effect in the presence of the electroweak…
In this paper, we investigate the structure of hybrid stars consisting of hadrons (neutrons, protons, sigmas, lambdas), leptons (electrons, muons), and quarks (up, down, strange). We use a relativistic mean-field (RMF) model namely the…
