Charge screening effect in the hadron-quark mixed phase

The Coulomb interaction effect and the surface effect are consistently taken into account in the hadron-quark mixed phase. These two finite-size effects greatly change the properties of the mixed phase and restrict its density region. In particular, the charge screening effect and the rearrangement of the charged particles are elucidated. Keeping the Gibbs conditions throughout the numerical procedure, we show the Maxwell construction effectively regain the physical meaning and the equation of state becomes similar to that given by the Maxwell construction.
