A very strange article in the paper this a.m. from Knight Ridder
service. Makes claim for evidence of unbound quarks in two neutron stars
by observations from the Chandra spacecraft. Observers are Helfand from
Columbia and Drake from CfA. No mention of what sort of x-ray evidence
would point to this, or why this does not blow the Standard Model to
shreds. Can anyone with more information provide some enlightenment?
