Core of neutron star consists of highly dense matter above normal nuclear density, where phase transitions is expected to take place. We review some phase transitions and recent topics of neutron stars.
In connection with the contribution "Quantum Condensates in Nuclear Matter" some problems are given to become more familiar with the techniques of many-particle physics.
The nucleation process under different external conditions is considered. It is shown that the duration of this process can be connected with the microscopic corrections to the free energy of the critical embryo. Connection between…
