Turbulent dynamo action in the high-conductivity limit: a hidden dynamo
K. -H. Raedler, U. Geppert
The paper deals with a simple spherical mean-field dynamo model of -type in the case of high electrical conductivity. A spherically symmetric distribution of turbulent motions…

Recycling NSs to ultrashort periods: a statistical analysis of their evolution in the "magnetic moment vs period" plane
Andrea Possenti, Monica Colpi, Ulrich Geppert +2
We investigate the statistical evolution of magnetic neutron stars recycled in Low Mass Binary (LMB) systems, simulating synthetic populations. Irrespective to the details of the p…

Magneto-rotational and thermal evolution of magnetars with crustal magnetic fields
U. Geppert, D. Page, M. Colpi +1
Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs) and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) are interpreted as young highly magnetized neutron stars (NSs). Their X-ray luminosity in quiescence, exceeding 1…
