Abstract

We have studied the structure of stellar objects made up of strange matter, which is suspected to be the actual ground state of cold, dense baryonic matter. The equation of state containing three strong interaction parameters B, αc and ms has been varied throughout the strange matter stability window in order to get a wide picture of these hypothetical objects. It is found that this type of model can account for the presently known observational features of compact objects, and conversely, that no restriction on the space of parameters (compatible with strange matter stability) is imposed by observational facts; unless some configurations having both e− and e+ in their structure happen to be unstable. The issues of the most likely parameter set in the light of present QCD understanding and the birth scenarios of strange stars are also briefly discussed.
