In this paper we review the most common descriptions for the first order phase transition to deconfined quark matter in the core of neutron stars. We also present a new description of these phase transitions in the core of proto-neutron stars, in which more constraints are enforced so as to include trapped neutrinos. Finally, we calculate the emission of gravitational waves associated with deconfinement phase transitions, discuss the possibility of their detection, and how this would provide information about the equation of state of dense matter.

    For a U(1)-charged scalar, the Euclidean bounce for vacuum decay loses O(4) symmetry at finite charge, lowers the barrier and increases the rate, while charge rearrangement imposes a subluminal terminal velocity on th...

    astro-ph.HE 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Bayesian analysis of mock neutron star radius measurements shows that precision radii mainly constrain the symmetry-energy parameters L and Ksym and the quark transition density, while transition strength and quark ...

  3. Probing up-down quark matter via gravitational waves

    astro-ph.HE 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Up-down quark stars in the two-families scenario yield tidal deformabilities compatible with GW170817, constraining the effective bag constant to approximately 50 MeV/fm^3.

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

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    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...
