Timing Properties of Magnetars
We study the pulse morphologies and pulse amplitudes of thermally emitting neutron stars with ultrastrong magnetic fields. The beaming of the radiation emerging from a magnetar was recently shown to be predominantly non-radial, with a small pencil and a broad fan component. We show that the combination of this radiation pattern with the effects of strong lensing in the gravitational field of th...
متن کاملMagnetars origin and progenitors with enhanced rotation
Among a dozen known magnetar-candidates there are no binary objects. As an estimate of a fraction of binary neutron stars is about 10% it is reasonable to address the question of solitarity of magnetars, to estimate theoretically the fraction of binary objects among them, and to mark out the most probable companions. We present population synthesis calculations of binary systems. Our goal is to...
متن کاملOrigin and hydrogeochemical evolution of Azarshahr travertine springs, NW Iran
1-Introduction Travertines are limestones that form where hot groundwaters rich in calcium and bicarbonate emerge at springs. Travertines cover a large area southwest of Azarshahr (East Azarbaijan province), in some parts of which active springs are currently settling travertine. One of the main questions about travertine springs is their origin, as well as the secondary processes that have ch...
متن کاملEvolution of the magnetic field in magnetars
We use numerical MHD to look at the stability of a possible poloidal field in neutron stars (Flowers & Ruderman 1977), and follow its unstable evolution, which leads to the complete decay of the field. We then model a neutron star after the formation of a solid crust of high conductivity. As the initial magnetic field we use the stable ‘twisted torus’ field which was the result of our earlier w...
متن کاملMagnetars: Time Evolution, Superfluid Properties, and Mechanism of Magnetic Field Decay
We calculate the coupled thermal evolution and magnetic field decay in relativistic model neutron stars threaded by superstrong magnetic fields (B > 10 G). Our main goal is to evaluate how such “magnetars” evolve with time and how field decay modifies the transitions to core superfluidity and cooling dominated by surface X-ray emission. Observations of a thermal X-ray spectral component and fas...
