Abstract

Based on observational facts and a variety of theoretical arguments we discuss in this work the possibility that pulsars in Low-Mass Binary Pulsar systems could be strange stars rather than neutron stars. It is shown that, although subject to reasonable uncertainties, the consideration of the physics of the SQM core and thin normal crusts leads to the prediction of several observed features of the magnetic field history of these systems whitin this working hypothesis.
