Abstract

Possibility of strange star formation in the recently discovered LMC supernova is examined. If the proto-neutron star first formed is converted into a strange star about 1 sec after the core bounce, a large energy release with E tot ~10 53 erg having QCD origin occurs. The high energy [Formula: see text]-events of long duration observed by Kamiokande II and IMB detectors can be naturally understood by the formation of the hot strange star.
