Hybrid stars containing the 2SC+<dd> phase cool more slowly than those with the 2SC phase because inherited 3P2 superfluidity suppresses quark beta decay, producing cooling curves close to the CFL case.

abstract
We study neutrino energy emission rates (emissivities) due to electron bremsstrahlung produced by $ee$ and $ep$ collisions in the superfluid neutron star cores. The neutrino emission due to $ee$ collisions is shown to be the dominant neutrino reaction at not too high temperatures ($T \la 10^8$ K) in dense matter if all other neutrino reactions involving nucleons are strongly suppressed by neutron and proton superfluidity. Simple practical expressions for the $ee$ and $ep$ neutrino emissivities are obtained. The efficiency of various neutrino reactions in the superfluid neutron-star cores is discussed for the cases of standard neutrino energy losses and the losses enhanced by the direct Urca process.

Cooling of Hybrid Stars with a 2SC+$<dd>$ Phase
Hybrid stars containing the 2SC+<dd> phase cool more slowly than those with the 2SC phase because inherited 3P2 superfluidity suppresses quark beta decay, producing cooling curves close to the CFL case.
