Examples of EOS.BQ from a continuum { EOS.BQ } emerging from a stiff MB165 EOS. Hadronic EOSs are plotted as dashed lines: N – nucleon EOS (black); B – nucleons and hyperons (red). The phase transition B →Q(2SC) takes place at P₁ = 47  MeV  fm^-3, a_2SC = 0.302 and λ_2SC = 1.3. EOS.Q(2SC) is plotted as a blue line. Two examples of Q(2SC)→Q(CFL) at P₂ = 69  MeV  fm^-3 are shown, corresponding to a stiffer CFL phase (a_CFL = 0.6, λ_2SC = 1.3) and a softer phase (a_CFL = 0.35, λ_2SC = 1.5). The EOS.Q(CFL)s are plotted as green solid lines. (This figure is available in color in the electronic form.)
