Description

Normal nuclei inside atoms are 2-flavored. What if normal baryonic matter is compressed intensely by gravity so that a huge number of nuclei would gradually merge to form a gigantic nucleus? It is proposed that gigantic nuclei could be 3-flavored, to be manifested in the form of compact stars, cosmic rays, and even dark matter.
