Thermal states of coldest and hottest neutron stars in soft X-ray transients
D. G. Yakovlev, K. P. Levenfish, A. Y. Potekhin +2
We calculate the thermal structure and quiescent thermal luminosity of accreting neutron stars (warmed by deep crustal heating in accreted matter) in soft X-ray transients (SXTs).…

Neutron star cooling: Theoretical aspects and observational constraints
D. G. Yakovlev, O. Y. Gnedin, A. D. Kaminker +2
The cooling theory of isolated neutron stars is reviewed. The main cooling regulators are discussed, first of all, operation of direct Urca process (or similar processes in exotic…
