Revisiting the Flowers-Ruderman instability of magnetic stars
Pablo Marchant, Andreas Reisenegger, Taner Akgün
In 1977, Flowers and Ruderman described a perturbation that destabilises a purely dipolar magnetic field in a fluid star. They considered the effect of cutting the star in half alo…
Long-period thermal oscillations in superfluid millisecond pulsars
Cristobal Petrovich, Andreas Reisenegger
In previous papers, we have shown that, as the rotation of a neutron star slows down, it will be internally heated as a consequence of the progressively changing mix of particles (…
Internal Heating of Old Neutron Stars: Contrasting Different Mechanisms
Denis Gonzalez, Andreas Reisenegger
Context: The standard cooling models of neutron stars predict temperatures K for ages yr. However, the likely thermal emission detected from the millisecond p…
Rotochemical heating with a density-dependent superfluid energy gap in neutron stars
Nicolás González-Jiménez, Cristóbal Petrovich, Andreas Reisenegger
When a rotating neutron star loses angular momentum, the reduction of the centrifugal force makes it contract. This perturbs each fluid element, raising the local pressure and orig…
Asymptotic, non-linear solutions for ambipolar diffusion in one dimension
Jaime Hoyos, Andreas Reisenegger, Juan Valdivia
We study the effect of the non-linear process of ambipolar diffusion (joint transport of magnetic flux and charged particles relative to neutral particles) on the long-term behavio…
Internal Heating of Old Neutron Stars: Contrasting Different Mechanisms
Denis Gonzalez, Andreas Reisenegger, Rodrigo Fernandez
The thermal emission detected from the millisecond pulsar J0437-4715 is not explained by standard cooling models of neutron stars without a heating mechanism. We investigated three…
