Deconfinement of quark content in neutron stars due to cosmic external agents

We summarize in this contribution to the the proceedings of "Compact Stars in the QCD Phase Diagram III (CSQCD III)", December 12-15, 2012, Guaruja, SP, Brazil the possibility of an scenario involving the existence of cosmic external agents able to deposit energy in neutron stars by (co-) or self-annihilation. This, in turn, may drive a internal phase transition in neutron stars in a sort of Trojan mechanism disrupting the original configuration. This event would have macroscopic consequences, by changing the EoS of the object and by the emission of a multimessenger signal, that in the photon range could be detected with gamma rays of $\sim10-100$ keV.
