Zg. Dai et T. Lu, THE U--]U+S REACTION-RATE AND BULK VISCOSITY OF STRANGE MATTER(D[), ZEITSCHRIFT FUR PHYSIK A-HADRONS AND NUCLEI, 355(4), 1996, pp. 415-420
The influence of the strong interactions in strange matter on its nonl
eptonic reaction rate and bulk viscosity is studied. We find the rate
is strongly suppressed by these interactions. The bulk viscosity is al
so influenced by them. At low temperatures, the viscosity is strongly
suppressed; but at high temperatures, it is slightly enhanced. The ast
rophysical implications of these results are also discussed.
