The freedom to choose neutron star magnetic field equilibria

Kostas Glampedakis, Paul D. Lasky

Our ability to interpret and glean useful information from the large body of observations of strongly magnetised neutron stars rests largely on our theoretical understanding of mag…

Detecting gravitational waves from mountains on neutron stars in the Advanced Detector Era

Brynmor Haskell, Maxim Priymak, Alessandro Patruno +3

Rapidly rotating Neutron Stars (NSs) in Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) are thought to be interesting sources of Gravitational Waves (GWs) for current and next generation ground ba…

Persistent crust-core spin lag in neutron stars

Kostas Glampedakis, Paul Lasky

It is commonly believed that the magnetic field threading a neutron star provides the ultimate mechanism (on top of fluid viscosity) for enforcing long-term corotation between the…

Gravitational waves from rapidly rotating neutron stars

Brynmor Haskell, Nils Andersson, Caroline D`Angelo +8

Rapidly rotating neutron stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries have been proposed as an interesting source of gravitational waves. In this chapter we present estimates of the gravitatio…

Gravitational Waves and Hydromagnetic Instabilities in Rotating Magnetized Neutron Stars

Paul D. Lasky, Burkhard Zink, Kostas D. Kokkotas

We perform nonlinear general relativistic ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations of poloidal magnetic fields in rotating polytropic neutron stars. We have three primary goals: i) to…

Hydromagnetic Instabilities in Neutron Stars

Paul D. Lasky, Burkhard Zink, Kostas D. Kokkotas +1

We model the non-linear ideal magnetohydrodynamics of poloidal magnetic fields in neutron stars in general relativity assuming a polytropic equation of state. We identify familiar…
