Glitches: The Exact Quantum Signatures of Pulsars Metamorphosis

Abstract: The observed recurrence of glitches in pulsars and neutron stars carries rich information about the evolution of their internal structures. In this article, I show that the glitch-events observed in pulsars are exact quantum signatures for their metamorphosis into dark super-baryons (SBs), whose interiors are made of purely incompressible superconducting gluon-quark superfluids. Here the quantum nuclear shell model is adopted to describe the permitted energy levels of the SB, which are assumed to be identical … Show more

“…Under these conditions, supranuclear dense matter has little choice, but to be superfluid. These arguments are in line with well-observed glitch phenomena in pulsars (see [7,8,9,10] for further details). Superconductivity ensures that magnetic fields are expelled from the zero-temperature core into the boundary layer between the core and the overlaying compressible and dissipative normal matter.…”

“…On the other hand, the cores of old and massive NSs are made of zero-temperature supranuclear dense matter. Under these conditions, it was conjectured that the matter must be made of an incompressible superconducting gluon-quark superfluid [14]. While superconductivity and superfluidity are direct consequences of zero-temperature dense matter even under terrestrial conditions, the incompressibility of gluon-quark matter would remain a hypothesis that may not be verified under normal conditions.…”

“…and n c R correspond to the cross-sectional area of the Su-Su-core and to the corresponding radius, respectively. The increase in the dimension of the core implies that the matter in the geometrically thin boundary layer between the SuSu-core and the ambient medium should undergo a crossover phase transition into an incompressible superfluid, whose total energy density saturates around the critical value [12] and the references therin). The growth of the core proceeds on the cosmic time scale and ends when the pulsar has metamorphosed entirely into a maximally compact invisible dark energy object and therefore becomes observationally indistinguishable from a stellar black hole.…”

“…In [9] these equations were solved at the background of a bimetric space-time (see Figure 1). Unlike the original model [8], in which the spin-down of the Su-Su-core is set to follow a priori given sequence of values { } n c Ω , in the present work however, the SuSu-core is set to undergo an abrupt spin-down, if the difference between its Eigen rotation and that of the ambient medium surpasses a critical value { }…”

“…It is worthwhile to mention that, for studying of the compact objects such as neutron stars in modified gravities, it is necessary that we extract modified TOV equation. For example, the modified TOV equation in dilaton gravity [51], vector-tensor-Horndeski theory of gravity [52], gravity's rainbow [53,54], F (R) and F (G) gravities [55][56][57], massive gravity [58,59], and F (R, T ) gravity [60], have been evaluated (see [61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74] for more details). Therefore, for studying the structure of neutron stars with a quark core in Einstein-Λ gravity, we have to modify TOV equation.…”
