This article presents an investigation into the pycnonuclear reaction rates in dense crustal matter of neutron stars contaminated with strange quark nuggets. The presence such nuggets would be a natural consequence if Witten's hypothesis is correct. methodology presented this recreation recent representation nuclear force interactions embedded within processes. study then extends to incorporate distinctive theoretical characteristics nuggets, like their low charge-per-baryon ratio, and...
This document presents a numerical study of the effects high density nuclear reactions, pycnonuclear on evolution white dwarfs that accrete matter from companion star. Primarily we seek observable properties might be different when include these reactions with varying microphysical assumptions. These assumptions effective nucleon-nucleon interactions, lattice structures and crystal polarization characteristics. Our results indicate that, although find some significant differences in reaction...
