Radiative viscosity of neutron stars

Shu-Hua Yang, Xiao-Ping Zheng, Chun-Mei Pi

We study non-linear effects of radiative viscosity of matter in neutron stars for both direct Urca process and modified Urca process, and find that non-linear effects will de…

The role of -mode damping in the thermal evolution of neutron stars

Shu-Hua Yang, Xiao-Ping Zheng, Chun-Mei Pi +1

The thermal evolution of neutron stars (NSs) is investigated by coupling with the evolution of -mode instability that is described by a second order model.The heating e…

Neutrino Emissivity of Non-equilibrium beta processes With Nucleon Superfluidity

Chun-Mei Pi, Xiao-Ping Zheng, Shu-Hua Yang

We investigate the influence of nucleon superfluidity on the neutrino emissivity of non-equilibrium beta processes. Calculations are performed of the reduction factors for direct a…

High-energy gamma-ray afterglows from low-luminosity gamma-ray bursts

Hao-Ning He, Xiang-Yu Wang, Yun-Wei Yu +1

The observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) such as 980425, 031203 and 060218, with luminosities much lower than those of other classic bursts, lead to the definition of a new clas…

The newly born magnetars powering gamma-ray burst internal-plateau emission: are there strange stars?

Yun-Wei Yu, Xiao-Feng Cao, Xiao-Ping Zheng

The internal-plateau X-ray emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) indicates that a newly born magnetar could be the central object of some GRBs. The observed luminosity and duration o…
