We review our recent works about ``pasta'' structures following the first-order phase transition in dense matter, which correspond to the structured mixed phases with geometrical symmetries. Three kinds of phase transitions at different…

In this work we evaluate the $^1S_0$ energy gap of $\Sigma^-$ hyperons in $\beta$-stable neutron star matter. We solve the BCS gap equation for an effective $\Sigma^-\Sigma^-$ pairing interaction derived from the most recent parametrization…

Baryonic matter close to the saturation density is very likely to present complex inhomogeneous structures collectively known under the name of pasta phase. At finite temperature, the different geometric structures are expected to coexist,…

The probability of observing a large deviation (LD) in the number of particles in a region $\Lambda$ in a dilute quantum gas contained in a much larger region $V$ is shown to decay as $\exp[-|\Lambda|\Delta F]$, where $|\L|$ is the volume…

In this work we calculate the $^1S_0$ gap energies of $\Lambda$ hyperons in neutron star matter. The calculation is based on a solution of the BCS gap equation for an effective G-matrix parameterization of the $\Lambda-\Lambda$ interaction…
