Magnetic fields in neutron stars: A theoretical perspective
arXiv:astro-ph/0503047 · doi:10.1063/1.2077190
Abstract
We present our view of the main physical ingredients determining the evolution of neutron star magnetic fields. This includes the basic properties of neutron star matter, possible scenarios for the origin of the magnetic field, constraints and mechanisms for its evolution, and a discussion of our recent work on the Hall drift.
