Sleeping beasts: strong toroidal magnetic field in quiescent magnetars explains their large pulsed fraction
Andrei P. Igoshev, Rainer Hollerbach, Toby Wood +1
Magnetars are neutron stars (NSs) with extreme magnetic fields of strength - G. They exhibit transient, highly energetic events, such as short X-ray fl…
Destabilization of super-rotating Taylor-Couette flows by current-free helical magnetic fields
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz, R. Hollerbach
In an earlier paper we showed that the combination of azimuthal magnetic fields and super-rotation in Taylor-Couette flows of conducting fluids can be unstable against non-axisymme…
Powering Central Compact Objects with a Tangled Crustal Magnetic Field
Konstantinos N. Gourgouliatos, Rainer Hollerbach, Andrei P. Igoshev
Central Compact Objects (CCOs) are X-ray sources with luminosity ranging between - erg~s, located at the centres of supernova remnants. Some of them have b…
Time-dependent Probability Density Functions and Information Geometry in the Fusion L-H Transition
Eun-jin Kim, Rainer Hollerbach
We report a first study of time-dependent Probability Density Functions (PDFs) in the Low-to- High confinement mode (L-H) transition by extending the previous prey-predator-type mo…
Wave propagation in semi-convective regions of giant planets
Christina M. Pontin, Adrian J. Barker, Rainer Hollerbach +2
Recent observations of Jupiter and Saturn suggest that heavy elements may be diluted in the gaseous envelope, providing a compositional gradient that could stabilise ordinary conve…
