The phase transition to a deconfined phase is studied and the consequences in the formation of neutron stars are investigated. We use the quark-meson-coupling model for the hadron matter and the MIT Bag model for the quark matter in order to build the appropriate equations of state for the hybrid stars. The properties of the stars are then calculated. The differences between unpaired and color-flavor locked quark matter are discussed.
