Monitoring Chandra Observations of the Quasi-persistent Neutron-star X-ray Transient Mxb 1659–29 in Quiescence: the Cooling Curve of the Heated Neutron-star Crust
We have observed the quasi-persistent neutron-star X-ray transient and eclipsing binary MXB 1659– 29 in quiescence on three occasions with Chandra. The purpose of our observations was to monitor the quiescent behavior of the source after its last prolonged (∼2.5 years) outburst which ended in September 2001. The X-ray spectra of the source are consistent with thermal radiation from the neutron-...
متن کاملTransient Events from Neutron Star Mergers
Mergers of neutron stars (NS+NS) or neutron stars and stellar mass black holes (NS+BH) eject a small fraction of matter with a sub-relativistic velocity. Upon rapid decompression nuclear density medium condenses into neutron rich nuclei, most of them radioactive. Radioactivity provides a long term heat source for the expanding envelope. A brief transient has the peak luminosity in the supernova...
متن کاملStrongly magnetized strange baryonic matter in neutron star
We investigate the strongly magnetized strange baryonic matter in a relativistic mean- eld theory. We rst take into account the hidden strange mesons and the eld-dependent meson-baryon coupling constants. In low-density region the strongly magnetized neutron star (NS) matter is nearly iso-symmetric. The equation of state (EOS) therefore becomes softer than that of the normal NS matter. Becaus...
متن کاملHigh-Yield Z-Pinch Thermonuclear Neutron Source
Introduction: Neutron beams are useful for many applications, from noninvasive imaging and characterization of materials to producing medical isotopes and detecting hidden explosive devices. Some applications require high-energy neutrons created in fusion nuclear reactions between deuterium (D) and tritium (T). To achieve thermal fusion, deuterium or DT plasma must be heated to about 10 8 K, wh...
متن کاملTransient Three-Dimensional Thermal Analysis of a Slab with internal heat generation and heated by a Point Moving Heat Source
In this work, analysis of transient three-dimensional heat transfer in a slab with internal heat generation and heated by a point moving heat source along its axis is carried out using integral transforms methods. The heat input into slab or workpiece by the moving heat source is considered in the model. From the results, it was established that the temperature of the material during the heat t...
