Query: Pasta phases within the QMC model   In this work the low density regions of nuclear and neutron star matter are
studied. The search for the existence of pasta phases in this region is
performed within the context of the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, which
incorporates quark degrees of freedom. Fixed proton fractions are considered,
as well as nuclear matter in beta equilibrium at zero temperature. We discuss
the recent attempts to better understand the surface energy in the coexistence
phases regime and we present results that show the existence of the pasta
phases subject to some choices of the surface energy coefficient. We also
analyze the influence of the nuclear pasta on some neutron star properties. The
equation of state containing the pasta phase will be part of a complete grid
for future use in supernova simulations.
