Abstract:
A compact star with superconducting quark core, the hadron crust and the mixed phase between
the two is considered. The quark meson coupling model for hadron matter and the color flavor
locked quark model for quark matter is used in order to construct the equation of state for the
compact star. The effect of pairing of quarks in the color flavor locked phase and the mixed phase
on the mass, radius, and period of the rotating star is studied
