An improved theory of fluid hydrogen at high density, based on a detailed treatment of inter-particle correlations and a self-consistent treatment of pressure ionization, has become available recently (Chabrier 1990, Saumon and Chabrier 1991, 1992). We present a preliminary comparison between this new EOS (hereatfer SC) and equations of state frequently used in astrophysical contexts, namely: Fontaine, Graboske and Van Horn 1977 (FGVH), Däppen et al. 1988 (MHD) and Magni and Mazzitelli 1979 (MM).The SC theory predicts a first-order phase transition in the region of pressure-ionization (the so-called Plasma Phase Transition, or PPT), between an essentially neutral mixture of atoms and molecules (xe– < 10−2), and a partially ionized plasma (xe– ≈ 50 %), with a critical point located at Pc = 0.614 Mbar, Tc = 15300K and pc = 0.35 g/cm3.

In this paper, we review the most common descriptions for the first-order phase transition to deconfined quark matter in the core of neutron stars. We also present a new description of these phase transitions in the core of proto-neutron stars, in which more constraints are enforced so as to include trapped neutrinos. Finally, we calculate the emission of gravitational waves associated with deconfinement phase transitions, discuss the possibility of their detection, and how this would provide information about the equation of state of dense matter.

Abstract We study the stochastic background of gravitational waves which accompany the sudden freeze-out of dark matter triggered by a cosmological first order phase transition that endows dark matter with mass. We consider models that produce the measured dark matter relic abundance via (1) bubble filtering, and (2) inflation and reheating, and show that gravitational waves from these mechanisms are detectable at future interferometers.
