Evidence for quark-matter cores in massive neutron stars
The theory governing the strong nuclear force—quantum chromodynamics—predicts that at sufficiently high energy densities, hadronic nuclear matter undergoes a deconfinement transition to a new phase of quarks and gluons1 . Although this has been observed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions2,3 ,...
