Resumen:
The matter in the outermost layer, or ?crust,? of a neutron star (theremnant of a supernova) is believed to host a variety of phases inwhich dense regions of nucleons are filled with voids of lowerdensity. The presence of the phases, euphemistically referred to as?nuclear pasta? because of their resemblance to the shapes oflasagna, gnocchi, and spaghetti, may a�ect the emission ofneutrinos, the primary mechanism by which the neutron star cools.
