Kaon condensate with trapped neutrinos and high-density symmetry energy behavior
نویسندگان
چکیده
Effects of the neutrino trapping and symmetry energy behavior are investigated in the framework of the chiral KaplanNelson model with kaon condensation. Decrease in the condensation threshold during deleptonization if found to be generic regardless uncertainties in the nucleon-kaon interactions and symmetry energy. Quantitatively however, differences are shown to be important.

Kaon Condensation in Neutron Stars and High Density Behaviour of Nuclear Symmetry
We study the influence of a high density behaviour of the nuclear symmetry energy on a kaon condensation in neutron stars. We find that the symmetry energy typical for several realistic nuclear potentials, which decreases at high densities, inhibits kaon condensation for weaker kaonnucleon couplings at any density. There exists a threshold coupling above which the kaon condensate forms at densi...
متن کاملStrangeness in Stellar Matter
A protoneutron star is formed immediately after the gravitational collapse of the core of a massive star. At birth, the hot and high density matter in such a star contains a large number of neutrinos trapped during collapse. Trapped neutrinos generally inhibit the presence of exotic matter – hyperons, a kaon condensate, or quarks. However, as the neutrinos diffuse out in about 10-15 s, the thre...
متن کاملEvolution of Proto–neutron Stars with Kaon Condensates
We present simulations of the evolution of a proto-neutron star in which kaon-condensed matter might exist, including the effects of finite temperature and trapped neutrinos. The phase transition from pure nucleonic matter to the kaon condensate phase is described using Gibbs’ rules for phase equilibrium, which permit the existence of a mixed phase. A general property of neutron stars containin...
متن کاملSpontaneous symmetry breaking with abnormal number of Nambu-Goldstone bosons and kaon condensate.
We describe a class of relativistic models incorporating a finite density of matter in which spontaneous breakdown of continuous symmetries leads to a lesser number of Nambu-Goldstone bosons than that required by the Goldstone theorem. This class, in particular, describes the dynamics of the kaon condensate in the color-flavor locked phase of high density QCD. We describe the spectrum of low en...
متن کاملStrange Pathways for Black Hole Formation
Immediately after they are born, neutron stars are characterized by an entropy per baryon of order unity and by the presence of trapped neutrinos. If the only hadrons in the star are nucleons, these effects slightly reduce the maximum mass relative to cold, catalyzed matter. However, if stangeness-bearing hyperons, a kaon condensate, or quarks are also present, these effects result in an increa...
