A "strange star" is a hypothetical type of neutron star that is thought to contain a significant amount of strange quark matter, which includes strange quarks in addition to the usual up and down quarks found in protons and neutrons. In standard models of particle physics, baryons (like protons and neutrons) are composed of these three types of quarks.
