On the Possibility of Combustion of Neutrons into Strange Quark Matter
  It is shown that a conversion of neurons into strange quark matter in neutron stars is possible by means of a combustion process with a well-defined front. Conditions for the realization of a specific combustion mode, whether deflagration, detonation, or fast combustion, are discussed for several forms of the equations of state of neutron and strange matters.
