We study the effect of a strong magnetic field on interacting quark matter and apply the same to strange star. We find that interacting strange matter is less stable than noninteracting strange matter in the presence of a strong magnetic field. We then calculate strange star structure parameters such as mass and radius and find that the strange star is less compact for interacting quark matter than for free quark matter in presence of strong magnetic field. The maximum masses of strange stars are found to be within the recent observational limit.

AbstractIt is believed that pulsars are neutron stars or strange stars with crusts. However we suggest here that pulsars may bebare strange stars(i.e., strange stars without crust). Due to rapid rotation and strong emission, young strange stars produced in supernova explosions should be bare when they act as radio pulsars. Because of strong magnetic field,twopolar-crusts would shield the polar caps of an accreting strange star. Such a suggestion can be checked by further observations.
