Description

Neutron stars represent excellent physical systems for the study of the high density QCD phase transition that might occur in their core. A promising line of research concerns the possible signatures of the dynamics of the formation of quark matter in a neutron star. We review the different signatures that have been recently proposed in connection with explosive phenomena such as supernovae, gamma-ray-bursts, merger of neutron stars. (author)
