Low-mass bare strange stars Original Research Article

Strange stars with low masses are suggested to exist in reality, the origin of which could be via accretion-induced collapse of white dwarfs. Such a strange star is likely bare, and would thus spin very fast, even to a period of <0.1 ms. Strange stars with low masses may differ from those with solar masses in various astrophysical appearances. Observations to test this “low-mass” idea are proposed.
