Dark quark 'stars': Do they matter for Omega(MATTER)?

Abstract

The structure of a spherically symmetric stable dark 'star' is discussed, at zero temperature, containing 1) a core of quarks in the deconfined phase and antileptons 2) a shell of hadrons in particular n, p, Lambda and Sigma(-) and leptons or antileptons and 3) a shell of hydrogen in the superfluid phase. If the superfluid hydrogen phase goes over into the electromagnetic plasma phase at densities well below one atom (10 fm)(3), as is usually assumed, the hydrogen shell is insignificant for the mass and the radius of the 'star'. These quantities are then determined approximatively: mass = 1.8 solar masses, radius = 9.2 km.
