Magnetized strange quark stars, composed of strange quark matter (SQM) and self-bound by strong interactions, can be formed if the energy per baryon of magnetized SQM is less than that of the most stable $^{56}$Fe nucleus under the zero…

We study non-rotating and isotropic strange quark stars in Lorentz-violating theories of gravity, and in particular in Ho\v{r}ava gravity and Einstein-{\ae}ther theory. For quark matter we adopt both linear and non-linear equations of…
Recent deep Chandra LETG+HRC-S observations suggest the possibility that RX J1856.5--3754 is a compact star whose radiation radius is 3.8--8.2 km. In this paper, we systematically calculate the mass-radius relations of quark stars within…

The recent observation of the pulsar PSR J1614-2230 with a mass of 1.97 +/- 0.04 M_sun gives a strong constraint on the quark and nuclear matter equations of state (EoS). We explore the parameter ranges for a parameterized EoS for quark…

The possible existence of strange stars in the universe will help in the understanding of various properties of quantum chromodynamics, like asymptotic freedom and chiral symmetry restoration, which is otherwise very difficult to prove in…
The X-ray emission of RXJ1856.5-3754 has been found to coincide to unprecedented accuracy with that of a blackbody, of radius 5.8+-0.9 km for the measured parallax distance of 140 pc (Burwitz et al. 2001, Drake et al. 2002). If the emission…
Density-dependent relations among saturation properties of symmetric nuclear matter and hyperonic matter, properties of hadron-(strange) quark hybrid stars are discussed by applying the conserving nonlinear $\sigma$-$\omega$-$\rho$ hadronic…
