The Coulomb interaction effect and the surface effect are consistently taken into account in the hadron-quark mixed phase. These two finite-size effects greatly change the properties of the mixed phase and restrict its density region. In…

The characteristics of the hadron-to-quark first-order phase transition differ depending on whether charge neutrality is locally or globally fulfilled. In $\beta$-equilibrated matter, these two possibilities correspond to the Maxwell and…
Hadron--quark mixed phase is expected in a wide region of the inner structure of hybrid stars. However, we show that the hadron--quark mixed phase should be restricted to a narrower region to because of the charge screening effect. The…
