Strange Stars : An interesting member of the compact object family
We have studied strange star properties both at zero temperature and at finite temperatures and searched signatures of strange stars in gamma‐ray, x‐ray and radio astronomy. We have a set of Equations of State (EoS) for strange quark matter (SQM) and solving the TOV equations, we get the structure of strange stars. The maximum mass for a strange star decreases with the increase of temperature, because at high temperatures, the EoS become softer. One important aspect of strange star is that, surface tension depends on the size and structure of the star and is significantly larger than the conventional values. Moment of inertia is another important parameter for compact stars as by comparing theoretical values with observed estimate, it is possible to constrain the dense matter Equation of State. We hope that this approach will help us to decide whether the members of the double pulsar system PSR J0737‐3039 are neutron stars or strange stars.

General relativistic effects of strong magnetic fields on the gravitational force: a driving engine for bursts of gamma rays in SGRs?
In general relativity all forms of energy contribute to gravity and not only just ordinary matter as in Newtonian Physics. This fact can be seen in the modified hydrostatic equilibrium equation for relativistic stars pervaded by magnetic (B) fields. It has an additional term coupled to the matter part as well as an anisotropic term which is purely of magnetic origin. That additional term coming from the pressure changed by the radial component of the diagonal electromagnetic field tensor, weakens the gravitational force when B is strong enough and can even produce an unexpected change in the attractive nature of the force by reversing its sign. In an extreme case, this new general relativistic (GR) effect can even trigger an instability in the star as a consequence of the sudden reversal of the hydrostatic pressure gradient. We suggest here that this GR effect may be the possible central engine driving the transient giant outbursts observed in Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs). In small regions of the neutron star (NS), strong magnetic condensation can take place. Beyond a critical limit, these highly magnetised bubbles may explode releasing the trapped energy as a burst of -rays of � 10 36 40 erg.

Compact strange stars with a medium dependence in gluons at finite temperature
Aims. The possible existence of strange stars in the universe will help in the understanding of various properties of quantum chromodynamics, like asymptotic freedom and chiral symmetry restoration, which is otherwise very difficult to prove in laboratory experiments. Methods. Strange star properties were calculated using large color approximation with built-in chiral symmetry restoration. A relativistic Hartree Fock calculation was performed using the Richardson potential as an interquark interaction. This potential has the asymptotic freedom and a confinement-deconfinement mechanism built into it and the present calculation employs an application of this potential with modified two scale parameters Λ and $\Lambda^{\prime}$, to find a new set of equations of state for strange quark matter. The linear confinement string tension from lattice calculations is 350 MeV and the Coulomb -like part has the parameter 100 MeV from deep inelastic scattering experiments. We also consider the effect of temperature, on gluon mass in a simple way, in addition to the usual density dependence, Results. We obtained a set of new equation of states for strange quark matter and also found that the transition temperature from hadronic matter to strange matter is at 80 MeV, close to the 100 MeV estimated in literature. Conclusions. Formation of strange stars may be the only signal for formation of quark-gluon plasma with asymptotic freedom and chiral symmetry restoration and this may be observable through many processes – such as for example through delayed γ ray afterglow.

Strange stars at finite temperature
We calculate strange star properties, using large Nc approximation with built-in chiral symmetry restoration (CSM). We used a relativistic Hartree Fock meanfield approximation method, using a modified Richardson potential with two scale parameters Λ and Λ', to find a new set of equation of state (EOS) for strange quark matter. We take the effect of temperature (T) on gluon mass, in addition to the usual density dependence, and find that the transition T from hadronic matter to strange matter is 80 MeV. Therefore formation of strange stars may be the only signal for formation of QGP with asymptotic freedom (AF) and CSM.

CHARGED POLYTROPIC STARS AND A GENERALIZATION OF LANE–EMDEN EQUATION
In this paper we discuss charged stars with polytropic equation of state, where we derive an equation analogous to the Lane–Endem equation. We assume that these stars are spherically symmetric, and the electric field have only the radial component. First we review the field equations for such stars and then we proceed with the analog of the Lane–Emden equation for a polytropic Newtonian fluid and their relativistic equivalent (Tooper, 1964).1 These kind of equations are very interesting because they transform all the structure equations of the stars in a group of differential equations which are much more simple to solve than the source equations. These equations can be solved numerically for some boundary conditions and for some initial parameters. For this we assume that the pressure caused by the electric field obeys a polytropic equation of state too.

Strange stars in Krori–Barua space-time
The singularity free space-time metric obtained by Krori and Barua (J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 8:508, 1975) satisfies the physical requirements of a realistic star. Consequently, we explore the possibility of applying the Krori and Barua model to describe ultra-compact objects like strange stars. For it to become a viable model for strange stars, bounds on the model parameters have been obtained. Consequences of a mathematical description to model strange stars have been analyzed.

Charged anisotropic matter with linear or nonlinear equation of state
Ivanov pointed out substantial analytical difficulties associated with self-gravitating, static, isotropic fluid spheres when pressure explicitly depends on matter density. Simplifications achieved with the introduction of electric charge were noticed as well. We deal with self-gravitating, charged, anisotropic fluids and get even more flexibility in solving the Einstein-Maxwell equations. In order to discuss analytical solutions we extend Krori and Barua's method to include pressure anisotropy and linear or nonlinear equations of state. The field equations are reduced to a system of three algebraic equations for the anisotropic pressures as well as matter and electrostatic energy densities. Attention is paid to compact sources characterized by positive matter density and positive radial pressure. Arising solutions satisfy the energy conditions of general relativity. Spheres with vanishing net charge contain fluid elements with unbounded proper charge density located at the fluid-vacuum interface. Notably the electric force acting on these fluid elements is finite, although the acting electric field is zero. Net charges can be huge (10{sup 19}C) and maximum electric field intensities are very large (10{sup 23}-10{sup 24} statvolt/cm) even in the case of zero net charge. Inward-directed fluid forces caused by pressure anisotropy may allow equilibrium configurations with larger net charges and electricmore » field intensities than those found in studies of charged isotropic fluids. Links of these results with charged strange quark stars as well as models of dark matter including massive charged particles are highlighted. The van der Waals equation of state leading to matter densities constrained by cubic polynomial equations is briefly considered. The fundamental question of stability is left open.« less

Electromagnetic mass model admitting conformal motion
We study charged fluid spheres under the 4-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell space-time. The solutions thus obtained admitting conformal motion. We also investigate whether the solutions set provide electromagnetic mass models such that the physical parameters including the gravitational mass arise from the electromagnetic field alone. In this connection three cases are studied here in detail with the propositions: (1) $p = - \rho$, (2) $\sigma e^{\lambda/2} = \sigma_0$ and (3) $8 \pi p - E^2 = p_0$ where $\rho$, $p$, $\sigma$ are respectively the usual matter density, fluid pressure and charge density of the spherical distribution. Based on these assumptions several features are explored which seems physically very interesting.

Wormhole inspired by non-commutative geometry
In the present letter we search for a new wormhole solution inspired by noncommutative geometry with the additional condition of allowing conformal Killing vectors (CKV). A special aspect of noncommutative geometry is that it replaces point-like structures of gravitational sources with smeared objects under Gaussian distribution. However, the purpose of this paper is to obtain wormhole solutions with noncommutative geometry as a background where we consider a point-like structure of gravitational object without smearing effect. It is found through this investigation that wormhole solutions exist in this Lorentzian distribution with viable physical properties.

Gauge momentum operators for the Calogero-Sutherland model with anti-periodic boundary condition
The integrability of a classical Calogero systems with anti-periodic boundary condition is studied. This system is equivalent to the periodic model in the presence of a magnetic field. Gauge momentum operators for the anti-periodic Calogero system are constructed. These operators are hermitian and simultaneously diagonalizable with the Hamiltonian. A general scheme for constructing such momentum operators for trigonometric and hyperbolic Calogero-Sutherland model is proposed. The scheme is applicable for both periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions. The existence of these momentum operators ensures the integrability of the system. The interaction parameter $\lambda$ is restricted to a certain subset of real numbers. This restriction is in fact essential for the construction of the hermitian gauge momentum operators.
