Superfluid Heat Conduction and the Cooling of Magnetized Neutron Stars

Deborah N. Aguilera, Vincenzo Cirigliano, José A. Pons +2

We report on a new mechanism for heat conduction in the neutron star crust. We find that collective modes of superfluid neutron matter, called superfluid phonons (sPhs), can influe…

Neutron star long term cooling - Joule heating in magnetized neutron stars

Deborah N. Aguilera, José A. Pons, Juan A. Miralles

We present two-dimensional simulations for the cooling of neutron stars with strong magnetic fields (B > 1e13 Gauss). We study how the cooling curves are influenced by magnetic fie…

Joule heating in the cooling of magnetized neutron stars

Deborah N. Aguilera, Jose A. Pons, Juan A. Miralles

We present 2D simulations of the cooling of neutron stars with strong magnetic fields (B \geq 10^{13} G). We solve the diffusion equation in axial symmetry including the state of t…

2D Cooling of Magnetized Neutron Stars

Deborah N. Aguilera, José A. Pons, Juan A. Miralles

Context: Many thermally emitting isolated neutron stars have magnetic fields larger than 10^13 G. A realistic cooling model that includes the presence of high magnetic fields shoul…

Neutral color-spin locking phase in neutron stars

Deborah N. Aguilera

We present results for the spin-1 color-spin locking phase (CSL) using a NJL-type model in two flavor quark matter for compact stars applications. The CSL condensate is flavor symm…

Nonlocality effects on Color Spin Locking condensates

D. N. Aguilera, D. Blaschke, H. Grigorian +1

We consider the color spin locking (CSL) phase of two-flavor quark matter at zero temperature for nonlocal instantaneous, separable interactions. We employ a Lorentzian-type form f…
