In any context in which color superconductivity arises in nature, it is likely to involve pairing between species of quarks with differing chemical potentials. For suitable values of the differences between chemical potentials, Cooper pairs with nonzero total momentum are favored, as was first realized by Larkin, Ovchinnikov, Fulde and Ferrell (LOFF). Condensates of this sort spontaneously break translational and rotational invariance, leading to gaps which vary periodically in a crystalline pattern. Unlike the original LOFF state, these crystalline quark matter condensates include both spin zero and spin one Cooper pairs. We explore the range of parameters for which crystalline color superconductivity arises in the QCD phase diagram. If in some shell within the quark matter core of a neutron star (or within a strange quark star) the quark number densities are such that crystalline color superconductivity arises, rotational vortices may be pinned in this shell, making it a locus for glitch phenomena.

Berry Curvature and Spin-One Color Superconductivity
In spin-one color superconductors, the topological node count is set by a generalized pairing monopole charge that includes color Berry flux, which cancels in the color-spin-locking phase and produces gapless quasipar...

Classification of color superconductivity by one-gluon exchange helicity amplitudes and renormalization group equations
In dense QCD, the most attractive quark pairing channel is classified by helicity amplitudes and renormalization group equations, with a new p-wave (1P1) channel favored for symmetric flavor and attraction found in th...

How neutron star properties disfavor a nuclear chiral density wave
Within this nucleon-meson model, a chiral density wave in neutron star cores is only stable for equations of state too soft to support observed two-solar-mass pulsars, predicting isotropic cores.

Tidal deformation and strain accumulation of solid compact stars
Solid strangeon stars of 1.4 Msun differ by ~40% in tidal deformability from fluid counterparts and release up to 10^46 erg via central-peaking strain fracture at hundreds of Hz.
