Q star
A Q-Star, also known as a gray hole, is hypothetical type of a compact, heavy neutron star with an exotic state of matter. The Q stands for a conserved particle number. A Q-Star may be mistaken for a stellar black hole.
Types of Q-stars
- SUSY Q-ball[1]
- B-ball, stable Q-balls with a large baryon number B. They may exist in neutron stars that have absorbed Q-ball(s).[1]
