We show that the hadron-quark mixed phase is restricted to narrow range of baryon chemical potential by the charge screening effect. Accordingly the mixed phase expected in hadron-quark hybrid stars should be narrow. Although the screening…

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…

Neutron stars explore matter at the highest densities in the universe such that their inner cores might undergo a phase transition from hadronic to exotic phases, e.g., quark matter. Such a transition could be associated with non-trivial…
