Theory of cooling neutron stars versus observations

D. G. Yakovlev, O. Y. Gnedin, A. D. Kaminker +1

We review current state of neutron star cooling theory and discuss the prospects to constrain the equation of state, neutrino emission and superfluid properties of neutron star cor…

Magnetars as cooling neutron stars with internal heating

A. D. Kaminker, D. G. Yakovlev, A. Y. Potekhin +3

We study thermal structure and evolution of magnetars as cooling neutron stars with a phenomenological heat source in a spherical internal layer. We explore the location of this la…

Minimal models of cooling neutron stars with accreted envelopes

A. D. Kaminker, M. E. Gusakov, D. G. Yakovlev +1

We study the "minimal" cooling scenario of superfluid neutron stars with nucleon cores, where the direct Urca process is forbidden and the enhanced cooling is produced by the neutr…

Cooling of Akmal-Pandharipande-Ravenhall neutron star models

M. E. Gusakov, A. D. Kaminker, D. G. Yakovlev +1

We study the cooling of superfluid neutron stars whose cores consist of nucleon matter with the Akmal-Pandharipande-Ravenhall equation of state. This equation of state opens the po…

Symmetry of the Neutron and Proton Superfluidity Effects in Cooling Neutron Stars

M. E. Gusakov, A. D. Kaminker, D. G. Yakovlev +1

We investigate the combined effect of neutron and proton superfluidities on the cooling of neutron stars whose cores consist of nucleons and electrons. We consider singlet-state pa…

Neutron star cooling

D. G. Yakovlev, O. Y. Gnedin, M. E. Gusakov +3

The impact of nuclear physics theories on cooling of isolated neutron stars is analyzed. Physical properties of neutron star matter important for cooling are reviewed such as compo…
