Superdense QCD Matter and Compact Stars: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Superdense QCD Matter and Compact Stars, Tsachkadzor, Armenia, from 2 to 7 October 2003

Book Description
This volume covers the main topics in the theory of superdense QCD matter and its application to the astrophysics of compact stars in a comprehensive and yet accessible way. The material is presented as a combination of extensive introductory lectures and more topical contributions. The book is centered around the question whether hypothetical new states of dense matter in the compact star interior could give clues to the explanation of puzzling phenomena such as gamma-ray bursts, pulsar glitches, compact star cooling and gravitational waves.
