In this article we will focus on the appearance of the hadron-quark phase transition and the formation of strange matter in the interior region of the hypermassive neutron star and its conjunction with the spectral properties of the emitted gravitational waves (GWs). A strong hadron-quark phase transition might give rise to a mass-radius relation with a twin star shape and we will show in this article that a twin star collapse followed by a twin star oscillation is feasible. If such a twin star collapse would happen during the postmerger phase it will be imprinted in the GW-signal.
