    Hadronic and quark matter - applications in astrophysics
    Oral presentation
    Relativistic binary systems showing the ablation of the donor star by pulsar winds have been discovered in 1988 and studied recently using FermiLat and other facilities. We discuss in this presentation the evolution of the "black widow" systems, showing that theoretical tracks reveal i) the importance of illumination feedback of X rays onto the donor star, ii) a long (several Gyr) overall...

    Hadronic and quark matter - applications in astrophysics
    Oral presentation
    Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) are the highest energy messengers of the present universe, with energies up to $10^{20}$ eV. Studies of astrophysical particles (hadrons, neutrinos and photons) at their highest observed energies have implications for fundamental physics as well as astrophysics. The primary particles interacts in the atmosphere and generates an extensive air shower....

    Hadronic and quark matter - applications in astrophysics
    Oral presentation
    The pasta phase in core-collapse supernova matter (finite temperatures and fixed pro- ton fractions) is studied within relativistic mean field models. Three different calculations are used for comparison, the Thomas-Fermi (TF), the Coexistence Phase (CP) and the Compressible Liquid Drop (CLD) approximations. The effects of including light clusters in nuclear matter and the densities at...

    Hadronic and quark matter - applications in astrophysics
    Oral presentation
    In the present paper we employ the quark-meson coupling model (QMC) to investigate the onset of the pasta phase in nuclear matter under conditions such as those expected in neutron star crusts. Pasta is obtained with fixed proton fractions and for beta equilibrated matter. We probe our results into restrictions imposed on the the values of the density and pressure at the inner edge...
