We investigate the extension to finite temperatures and neutrino chemical potentials of a recently developed nonlocal chiral quark model approach to the equation of state of neutron star matter. We consider two light quark flavors and current-current interactions in the scalar-pseudoscalar, vector, and diquark pairing channels, where the nonlocality of the currents is taken into account by a Gaussian form factor that depends on the spatial components of the 4-momentum. Within this framework, we analyze order parameters, critical temperatures, phase diagrams, equations of state, and mass-radius relations for different temperatures and neutrino chemical potentials. For parameters of the model that are constrained by recent multi-messenger observations of neutron stars, we find that the mass-radius diagram for isothermal hybrid star sequences exhibits the thermal twin phenomenon for temperatures above 30 MeV.

  1. The petit four of color-superconducting phases in proto-neutron star evolution

    nucl-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Along constant-baryon-number cooling tracks, color-superconducting cores in proto-neutron stars follow four scenarios, with stable cold CSC only in a narrow high-mass band for the chosen EoS.

  2. Suppression of dynamical momentum-space shell by chiral symmetry

    nucl-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    In a parity doublet model, self-consistent minimization keeps the quark fraction at zero up to about 8n0, showing quark onset and chiral restoration need not coincide.

  3. Quantifying the Information Gain from Future High-Precision Radius Measurements for Identifying Twin Neutron Stars

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 reject novelty 4.0

    The paper claims a radius precision of ~0.2 km is enough to extract most Bayesian information for identifying twin neutron stars, but its own distinguishability and entropy analyses suggest notable gains remain down t...
