Quark Star M<strong>as</strong>ses: effects <strong>of</strong> <strong>quark</strong> pairing<br />
(Weissenborn, Sagert, Pagliara, Hempel, JSB 2011)<br />
two constraints on <strong>quark</strong> <strong>matter</strong>: 2-flavour <strong>and</strong> 3-flavour line<br />
green region: allowed parameter space from maximum pulsar m<strong>as</strong>s<br />
a gap <strong>of</strong> at le<strong>as</strong>t ∆ = 20 MeV is needed to be compatible with observations<br />
pulsar m<strong>as</strong>ses above 1.9M ⊙ start to constrain QCD parameters!<br />
additional interactions needed <strong>for</strong> pulsar m<strong>as</strong>ses well above 2.3M ⊙<br />
