Rates for nucleation of two-flavor quark matter in a neutron star core,
originally composed of nuclear matter in $\beta$ equilibrium, are calculated at
zero temperature by a quantum tunneling analysis incorporating the
electrostatic energy. We find that a nucleated droplet would develop into bulk
matter due to electron screening effects.
