We use relativistic mean field (RMF) models to describe the nuclear matter at low densities and zero temperature. The Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model is used to describe the quark matter at high densities and zero temperature. A Gibbs construct is used to describe the hadron-quark phase transition (HQPT) at large densities. Within the model, as the density increases, a mixed phase (MP) appears at density about 2.5 times the nuclear matter saturation density (ρ <inf>0</inf>) and ends at density about 5ρ <inf>0</inf> beyond which the pure quark matter phase appears. It turns out that a stable HS of maximum mass, M = 2.27 M <inf>⊙</inf> with radius R = 14 km (for NL3 parameterisation of nuclear RMF model), can exist with the quark matter in the core in a MP only. HQPT in the core of maximum mass HS occurs at radial distance, r<inf>c</inf> = 0.27R where the equilibrium speed of sound shows a discontinuity. Existence of quark matter in the core enhances the non-radial oscillation frequencies in HSs compared to NSs of the same mass. This enhancement is significantly large for the g modes. Such an enhancement of the g modes is also seen for a density dependent Bayesian (DDB) parmeterisation of the nucleonic EOS. The non-radial oscillation frequencies depend on the vector coupling in the NJL model. The values of g and f mode frequencies decrease with increase the vector coupling in quark matter.falseastrophysical fluid dynamics | massive stars | neutron starsArticlehttps://hdl.handle.net/10316/113973147575161 February 202315015arJournal16
