Can pulsar-like compact objects release further huge free energy besides the kinematic energy of rotation? This is actually relevant to the equation of state of cold supra-nuclear matter, which is still under hot debate. Enormous energy is surely needed to understand various observations, such as $\gamma-$ray bursts, fast radio bursts and soft $\gamma-$ray repeaters. In this paper, the elastic/gravitational free energy of solid strangeon star is revisited for strangeon stars, with two anisotropic models to calculate in general relativity. It is found that huge free energy (> $10^{46}$ erg) could be released via starquakes, given an extremely small anisotropy ($(p_{\rm t}-p_{\rm r})/p_{\rm r} \sim 10^{-4}$, with $p_{\rm t}$/$p_{\rm r}$ the tangential/radial pressure), implying pulsar-like stars could have great potential of free energy release without extremely strong magnetic fields in solid strangeon star model.

  1. Tidal deformation and strain accumulation of solid compact stars

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5

    Solid strangeon stars of 1.4 Msun differ by ~40% in tidal deformability from fluid counterparts and release up to 10^46 erg via central-peaking strain fracture at hundreds of Hz.
