Nuclear symmetry energy and hadron-quark mixed phase in neutron stars
read the original abstract
We study the hadron-quark mixed phase, which may occur in the interior of neutron stars. The relativistic mean-field model is employed to describe the hadronic phase, while the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model is used for the quark phase. We examine the effects of nuclear symmetry energy in the hadronic phase and repulsive vector interaction in the quark phase. For the treatment of hadron-quark mixed phase, we describe and compare four methods: (1) energy minimization method; (2) coexisting phases method; (3) Gibbs construction; and (4) Maxwell construction. The finite-size effects like surface and Coulomb energies are taken into account in the energy minimization and coexisting phases methods, which play a key role in determining the pasta configuration during the hadron-quark phase transition. It is found that massive neutron stars may contain hadron-quark pasta phases, but pure quark matter is unlikely to occur in the interior of neutron stars.

Characterizing the quark-hadron mixed phase in compact star cores : sensitivity to nuclear saturation and quark-model parameters at finite-temperature
The quark-hadron mixed phase width in hybrid stars is mainly controlled by effective nucleon mass and symmetry energy, with temperature reducing the width and softening the EOS while strong vector repulsion is needed ...
