Numerical simulation of the electron capture process in a magnetar interior
Z. F. Gao, N. Wang, J. P. Yuan +2
In a superhigh magnetic field, direct Urca reactions can proceed for an arbitrary proton concentration. Since only the electrons with high energy (, is the threshold…

Evolution of superhigh magnetic fields of magnetars
Z. F. Gao, N. Wang, J. P. Yuan +3
In this paper, we consider the effect of Landau levels on the decay of superhigh magnetic fields of magnetars. Applying anisotropic neutron superfluid theory yield a seco…
