  1. Cooling of a New Born Compact Star with Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) Phase Transition(cooling from hot quark star to cold neutron star) By: Prof. Ming-Chung Chu (The Chinese University of Hong Kong) Ka-Wah Wong (The Chinese University of Hong Kong, University of Virginia) UVa Research Symposium - February 4th, 2005

  2. Outline of the Presentation • Very Brief Introduction of Compact Stars, Quark Matter • Energetic Consideration - Static Properties of Quark Stars (EOS:Perturbative QCD ~ s2) • QCD Phase Transition - Cooling

  3. Compact Star Compact Star White Dwarf - degenerate e pressure (ground state e) - Mass ~ MO - R ~ 1000 km -  ~ 107 g/cm3 Neutron(?) Star - degenerate n pressure (ground state n) - Mass ~ MO - R ~ 10 km -  ~ 1015 g/cm3 Black Hole • normal nuclear matter (e.g. proton, neutron) energy density 0 ~ 2.51 x 1014 g/cm3 . . ~ several 0

  8. Energy Consideration Latent Heat = Conversion Energy Econv = MG(QS) - MG(NS) same baryon number

  9. Cold EOS from perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (pQCD) - S2 [Fraga 2001] (asymptotic freedom)  = 2-3 

  10. () => Pressure, Energy Density, Number Density => EOS, P()

  11. Relativistic Star • Internal structure of a static, isotropic relativistic star: TOV equation

  12. Latent Heat = Econv = MG(QS) - MG(NS) same baryon number Summary of Energy Consideration • Within the uncertainty in EOS, Quark Stars can be unstable compared to Neutron Stars, with conversion energy up to 10^{53} erg (energy is comparable to GRB)

  23. Summary of Phase Transition • Latent heat ~ 1053 erg (GRB energy source?) • L ~ 1048-1054 erg /s, duration ~ 10-3-1000s (or even longer!), short and long GRB?? • Signature 1: 2nd neutrino burst • Signature 2: long duration –ray source

  24. Conclusion • Within the uncertainty based on pQCD, Quark Star can be energetically unstable compared to Neutron Star. • QS NS • 2nd neutrino burst is a signature of PT • Econv is comparable GRB cooling

Future Works • More detail understanding of each piece of physics, e.g. EOS, cooling, phase transition process, hydro process, neutrino, high energy phy… • Full simulation from Core Collapse to the formation of Compact Star. • Rotation (Pulsar), Interaction with the environment (SN remnant), Magnetic (Magnetar), SN – SS, SN-GRB-SS relation … • Compare with observation THE END
