Differentially rotating magnetised neutron stars: production of toroidal magnetic fields
We initiate numerical studies of differentially rotating magnetised (proto) neutron stars by studying through construction from first principles the coupling between an assumed differential rotation and an impressed magnetic field. For a perfect incompressible, homogeneous, non-dissipative fluid sphere immersed in an ambient plasma, we solve the (coupled) azimuthal components of the Navier-Stok...
متن کاملOn the Maximum Mass of Differentially Rotating Neutron Stars.
We construct relativistic equilibrium models of differentially rotating neutron stars and show that they can support significantly more mass than their nonrotating or uniformly rotating counterparts. We dynamically evolve such "hypermassive" models in full general relativity and show that there do exist configurations that are dynamically stable against radial collapse and bar formation. Our re...
متن کاملHydromagnetic instability in differentially rotating flows.
We study the stability of compressible differentially rotating flows in the presence of the magnetic field, and we show that the compressibility profoundly alters the previous results for a magnetized incompressible flow. The necessary condition of newly found instability can be easily satisfied in various flows in laboratory and astrophysical conditions and reads BsBphiOmega' not equal to 0, w...
متن کاملHydromagnetic instabilities in proto–neutron stars
The stability properties of newly born neutron stars, or proto–neutron stars (PNSs), are considered. We take into account dissipative processes, such as neutrino transport and viscosity, in the presence of a magnetic field. In order to find the regions of the star subject to different sorts of instability, we derive the general instability criteria and apply it to evolutionary models of PNSs. T...
متن کاملNeutrino transport and hydrodynamic stability of rotating proto-neutron stars
Aims. We study stability of differentially rotating non-magnetic proto-neutron stars. Methods. Linear stability properties are considered taking into account neutrino transport. Results. If neutrino transport is efficient, the star can be subject to a diffusive instability that can occur even in the convectively stable region. The instability arises on the time-scale comparable to the time-scal...
