Modelling magnetically deformed neutron stars
Rotating deformed neutron stars are important potential sources for groundbased gravitational-wave interferometers such as LIGO, GE0600 and VIRGO. One mechanism that may lead to significant non-asymmetries is the internal magnetic field. It is well known that a magnetic star will not be spherical and, if the magnetic axis is not aligned with the spin axis, the deformation will lead to the emiss...
متن کاملMagnetically Accreting Isolated Old Neutron Stars
Previous work on the emission from isolated old neutron stars (IONSs) accreting from the interstellar medium (ISM) has focused on gravitational captureÈi.e., Bondi accretion. We propose a new class of sources that accrete via magnetic interaction with the ISM. While for the Bondi mechanism the accretion rate decreases with increasing neutron star velocity, in magnetic accretors (MAGACs) M0 Bond...
متن کاملModelling the dynamics of superfluid neutron stars
In this brief summary I describe our recent work on superfluid neutron star dynamics. I review results on shear viscosity, hyperon bulk viscosity, vortex mediated mutual friction and the modelling of multifluid systems in general. For each problem I provide a set of questions that need to be addressed by future work.
متن کاملModelling mid-Z element atmospheres for strongly-magnetized neutron stars
We construct models for strongly-magnetized neutron star atmospheres composed of mid-Z elements (carbon, oxygen and neon) with magnetic fields B = 1012–1013 G and effective temperatures Teff = (1 − 5) × 106 K; this is done by first addressing the physics relevant to strongly-magnetized plasmas and calculating the equation of state and polarizationdependent opacities. We then obtain the atmosphe...
متن کاملDifferent Magnetic Field Distributions in Deformed Neutron Stars
In this work, we review the formalism which would allow us to model magnetically deformed neutron stars. We study the effect of different magnetic field configurations on the equation of state (EoS) and the structure of such stars. For this aim, the EoS of magnetars is acquired by using the lowest order constraint variational (LOCV) method and employing the AV18 potential....
