Shear Viscosity of the outer crust of Neutron stars: Ion Contribution
O. L. Caballero, S. Postnikov, C. J. Horowitz +1
The shear viscosity of the crust might have a damping effect on the amplitude of r-modes of rotating neutron stars. This damping has implications for the emission of gravitational…
Thermal conductivity and phase separation of the crust of accreting neutron stars
C. J. Horowitz, O. L. Caballero, D. K. Berry
Recently, crust cooling times have been measured for neutron stars after extended outbursts. These observations are very sensitive to the thermal conductivity of the crust and…
Neutrino Scattering in Heterogeneous Supernova Plasmas
O. L Caballero, C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry
Neutrinos in core collapse supernovae are likely trapped by neutrino-nucleus elastic scattering. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we calculate neutrino mean free paths and ion…
