Young isolated neutron stars from the Gould Belt
The origin of the local population of young, cooling neutron stars is investigated with a population synthesis model taking into account the contribution of neutron stars born in the Gould Belt, in addition to those originating in the Galactic disk. We estimate their emission in the soft X-ray band as a function of distance and age and construct the Log N – Log S distribution. It is shown that ...
متن کاملLow Energy X-ray Emission from Young Isolated Neutron Stars
A young neutron star with large spin-down power is expected to be closely surrounded by an e pair plasma maintained by the conversion of γ-rays associated with the star’s polar-cap and/or outer-gap accelerators. Cyclotron-resonance scattering by the e and e within several radii of such neutron stars prevents direct observations of thermal X-rays from the stellar surface. Estimates are presented...
متن کاملTTauri stars and the Gould Belt near Lupus
We present results of a study to investigate the spatial distribution of X-ray active young stellar objects near the Lupus star forming region (SFR). In this SFR, a recent study has led to the discovery of some 130 new weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) dispersed over a large area of some 230 square degrees. However, the true extent of the spatial distribution of these stars could not be determined...
متن کاملNeutrino Signatures From Young Neutron Stars
After a successful core collapse supernova (CCSN) explosion, a hot dense proto-neutron star (PNS) is left as a remnant. Over a time of twenty or so seconds, this PNS emits the majority of the neutrinos that come from the CCSN, contracts, and loses most of its lepton number. This is the process by which all neutron stars in our galaxy are likely born. The emitted neutrinos were detected from SN ...
متن کاملGravitational Waves from Isolated Neutron Stars
Continuous wave gravitational radiation from isolated rotating neutron stars is discussed. The general waveform and orders of magnitude for the amplitude are presented for various known pulsars. The specific case of gravitational radiation resulting from the distortion induced by the stellar magnetic field is presented. Finally some preliminary results about the signal from the whole population...
