A plasma made out of strange-quark matter (SQM) and electrons, has a rather high plasma frequency (>20 MeV). Thus, a compact star made of such material all the way up to its surface, i.e., a bare strange star, would be unable to radiate…

Pulsar-like compact stars usually have strong magnetic fields, with the strength from $\sim 10^8$ to $\sim 10^{12}$ Gauss on surface. How such strong magnetic fields can be generated and maintained is still an unsolved problem, which is, in…
