Editing Strange star (section)

==Crust collapse==
For a strange star's crust to collapse, it must accrete matter from its environment in some form.

The release of even small amounts of its matter causes a cascading effect on the star's crust.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Chamel|first1=Nicolas|last2=Haensel|first2=Pawel|date=2008|title=Physics of Neutron Star Crusts|journal=Living Reviews in Relativity|volume=11|issue=1|pages=10|doi=10.12942/lrr-2008-10|doi-access=free |issn=1433-8351|pmc=5255077|pmid=28163609|arxiv=0812.3955|bibcode=2008LRR....11...10C}}</ref> This is thought to result in a massive release of magnetic energy as well as electron-positron pairs in the initial phases of the collapsing stage. This release of high-energy particles and magnetic energy in such a short period of time causes the newly released electron-positron pairs to be directed towards the poles of the strange star due to the increased magnetic energy created by the initial secretion of the strange star's matter. Once these electron-positron pairs are directed to the star's poles, they are then ejected at relativistic velocities, which is proposed to be one of the causes of [[fast radio burst]]s.
