The iron-sulfur system is important for planetary interiors and is intensely studied, particularly for better understanding of the cores of Mars and Earth. Yet, there is a paradox about high-pressure stability of FeS: ab initio global…

Strange quark matter could be found in the core of neutron stars or forming strange quark stars. As is well known, these astrophysical objects are endowed with strong magnetic fields which affect the microscopic properties of matter and…
The main properties of magnetized strangelets, namely, their energy per baryon, radius and electric charge, are studied. Temperature effects are also taken into account in order to study their stability compared to the 56Fe isotope and…
Compact stars can have either hadronic matter or can have exotic states of matter like strange quark matter or color superconducting matter. Stars also can have a quark core surrounded by hadronic matter, known as hybrid stars (HS). The HS…
We obtain an exact analytical solution to Einstein's field equations assuming a non-linear equation-of-state and a particular mass function. Our solution describes the interior of anisotropic color flavor locked strange quark stars. All…
We study compact stars with hybrid equations of state consisting of a nuclear outer region and two nested quark phases, each separated from the lower density phase by a strong first-order phase transition. The stability of these models is…
The simplest pattern of color superconductivity involves BCS pairing between up and down quarks. We argue that this ``2SC'' phase will not arise within a compact star. A macroscopic volume of quark matter must be electrically neutral and…
The equation of state of strange matter build of the u,d,s quarks in the framework of the MIT bag model is studied. The scaling relations with bag constant are discussed and applied to the determination of maximum frequency of a particle in…
Surface effects in strange-quark matter play an important role for certain observables which have been proposed in order to identify strange stars, and color superconductivity can strongly modify these effects. We study the surface of color…
The purpose of this thesis is to obtain more realistic equations of state to describe the matter forming magnetized white dwarfs, and use them to solve its structure equations. The equations of state are determined by considering the weak…
We show that within a recently developed nonlocal chiral quark model the critical density for a phase transition to color superconducting quark matter under neutron star conditions can be low enough for these phases to occur in compact star…
In the present work, we study about highly dense compact stars which are made of quarks, specially strange quarks, adopting the Krori-Barua (KB)~\cite{Krori1975} metric in the framework of $f(R,T)$ gravity. The equation of state (EOS) of a…
Recent publications rule out the negatively charged beta equilibrium strangelets in ordinary phase, and the color-flavor locked (CFL) strangelets are reported to be also positively charged. This letter presents new solutions to the system…
Recent observations of massive pulsars having masses of the order of two solar mass pose a new challenge for compact objects such as hybrid stars and neutron stars. Extensions of the bag model and the Nambu-Jona-Lasino model have been used…
In this article we study the structure and stability of compact astrophysical objects which are ruled by the dark energy equation of state (EoS). The existence of dark energy is important for explaining the current accelerated expansion of…
Equation of state for superdense nuclear matter is considered in the framework of relativistic mean-field theory, when the scalar-isovector -meson effective field is taken into account, as well. Assuming that the transition to the strange…
