Coulomb tunneling for fusion reactions in dense matter: Path integral Monte Carlo versus mean field
A. I. Chugunov, H. E. DeWitt, D. G. Yakovlev
We compare Path Integral Monte Carlo calculations by Militzer and Pollock (Phys. Rev. B 71, 134303, 2005) of Coulomb tunneling in nuclear reactions in dense matter to semiclassical…
Thermal conductivity of ions in a neutron star envelope
A. I. Chugunov, P. Haensel
We analyze the thermal conductivity of ions (equivalent to the conductivity of phonons in crystalline matter) in a neutron star envelope. We calculate the ion/phonon thermal conduc…
Seismic signatures of strange stars with crust
A. I. Chugunov
We study acoustic oscillations (eigenfrequencies, velocity distributions, damping times) of normal crusts of strange stars. These oscillations are very specific because of huge den…
Self-similar pressure oscillations in neutron star envelopes as probes of neutron star structure
A. I. Chugunov
We study eigenmodes of acoustic oscillations of high multipolarity l ~ 100 - 1000 and high frequency (~100 kHz), localized in neutron star envelopes. We show that the oscillation p…
