Quark - Nova
We explore the scenario where the core of a neutron star (having experienced a transition to an up and down quark phase) shrinks into the equilibrated quark object after reaching strange quark matter saturation density (where a composition of up, down and strange quarks is the favored state of matter). The overlaying (envelope) material free-falls following the core contraction releasing upto 1...
متن کاملQuark Nova compact remnants
We explore planet formation in the Quark Nova scenario. If a millisecond pulsar explodes as a Quark Nova, a protoplanetary disk can be formed out of the metal rich fall-back material. The propeller mechanism transfers angular momentum from the born quark star to the disk that will go through viscous evolution with later plausible grain condensation and planet formation. As a result, earth-size ...
متن کاملSupernova Sn2006gy as a First Ever Quark Nova?
The most luminous Supernova SN2006gy (more than a 100 times brighter than a typical supernova) has been a challenge to explain by standard models. For example, pair instability supernovae which are luminous enough seem to have too slow a rise, and core collapse supernovae do not seem to be luminous enough. We present an alternative scenario involving the quark-nova phenomenon (an explosive tran...
متن کاملDynamical and Thermal Evolution of the Quark-nova Ejecta
We explore the dynamical and thermal evolution of the ejected neutron star crust in a QuarkNova explosion. Typical explosion energies and ejected crust masses result in relativistic ejection with Lorentz factors of a few to a few hundred. The ejecta undergoes a rapid cooling and stretching resulting in break up into many small pieces (clumps) when the ejecta is only ∼ 100 km from the explosion ...
متن کاملTHE ROLE OF QUARK POLARIZATION IN HEAVY QUARK FRAGMENTATION
We calculate the exact fragmentation functions for c and b quark fragmentation taking into account the spin orientation of the initial heavy quark in the form of analytical and rather simple expressions. Our calculations show that spin orientation may have an important effect on the fragmentation spectrum. This effect is more striking in the cases of c ?D, D*; c? ? , ? , and ?B , B *.
