Relativistic Alfvén Waves Entering Charge Starvation in the Magnetospheres of Neutron Stars
Alexander Y. Chen, Yajie Yuan, Andrei M. Beloborodov +1
Instabilities in a neutron star can generate Alfvén waves in its magnetosphere. Propagation along the curved magnetic field lines strongly shears the wave, boosting its electric cu…
Plasmoid ejection by Alfvén waves and the fast radio bursts from SGR 1935+2154
Yajie Yuan, Andrei M. Beloborodov, Alexander Y. Chen +1
Using numerical simulations we show that low-amplitude Alfvén waves from a magnetar quake propagate to the outer magnetosphere and convert to "plasmoids" (closed magnetic loops) wh…
A Numerical Model for the Multi-wavelength Lightcurves of PSR J0030+0451
Alexander Y. Chen, Yajie Yuan, Georgios Vasilopoulos
Recent modeling of Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer(NICER) observations of the millisecond pulsar PSR J0030+0451 suggests that the magnetic field of the pulsar is non-dip…
