Three-dimensional magneto-thermal evolution of off-centred dipole magnetic field configurations in neutron stars

Andrei P. Igoshev, Rainer Hollerbach, Toby Wood

Off-centred dipole configurations have been suggested to explain different phenomena in neutron stars, such as natal kicks, irregularities in polarisation of radio pulsars and prop…

Shear-driven magnetic buoyancy in the solar tachocline: The mean electromotive force due to rotation

Craig D. Duguid, Paul J. Bushby, Toby S. Wood

The leading theoretical paradigm for the Sun's magnetic cycle is an -dynamo process, in which a combination of differential rotation and turbulent, helical flows produces a lar…

Three-Dimensional Magnetothermal Simulations of Magnetar Outbursts

Davide De Grandis, Roberto Turolla, Roberto Taverna +3

The defining trait of magnetars, the most strongly magnetized neutron stars (NSs), is their transient activity in the X/-bands. In particular, many of them undergo phases of enh…

Oscillatory convection and limitations of the Boussinesq approximation

Toby S Wood, Paul J Bushby

We determine the asymptotic conditions under which the Boussinesq approximation is valid for oscillatory convection in a rapidly rotating fluid. In the astrophysically relevant par…

Transport by meridional circulations in solar-type stars

Toby S. Wood, Nicholas H. Brummell

Transport by meridional flows has significant consequences for stellar evolution, but is difficult to capture in global-scale numerical simulations because of the wide range of tim…

Three-dimensional simulations of the magnetic stress in a neutron star crust

Toby S. Wood, Rainer Hollerbach

We present the first fully self-consistent three-dimensional model of a neutron star's magnetic field, generated by electric currents in the star's crust via the Hall effect. We fi…
