Recent observation of pulsar PSR J1614-2230 with mass about 2 solar masses poses a severe constraint on the equations of state (EOS) of matter describing stars under extreme conditions. Neutron stars (NS) can reach the mass limits set by…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of hybrid stars consisting of hadrons (neutrons, protons, sigmas, lambdas), leptons (electrons, muons), and quarks (up, down, strange). We use a relativistic mean-field (RMF) model namely the…

We study the so called hybrid stars, which are hadronic stars that contain a core of deconfined quarks. For this purpose, we make use of an extended version of the SU(3) chiral model. Within this approach, the degrees of freedom change…

In this work, under the hypothesis that quark matter may not be strange (Holdom et al. 2018), we adopt a modification of the coupling constant of the four-quark scalar interaction $G\rightarrow G_1+G_2\langle\bar{\psi}\psi\rangle$ in the…
