We study the effect of dark matter heating on the temperature of typical strange star(SS hereafter)(M=1.4 M⊙,R=10 km)in normal phase(NSS hereafter)and in a possible existing colour-flavour locked(CFL)phase(CSS hereafter).For NSS,the influence of dark matter heating is ignored until roughly 107yr.After 107yr,the dark matter heating is dominant that significantly delays the star cooling,which maintains a temperature much higher than that predicted by standard cooling model for old stars.Especially for CSS,the emissivity of dark matter will play a leading role after roughly 104yr,which causes the temperature to rise.This leads to the plateau of surface temperature appearing in~106.5yr which is earlier than that of NSS(~107yr).
The first order deconfinement phase transitions in rotating hybrid stars are studied and it is found that if the surface tension is sufficiently large, the transition from metastable hadron matter to stable mixed hadron-quark matter during the spindown history of a hybrid star can cause a glitch.
