Dynamics of Quantum Vorticity in a Random Potential
Bennett Link
I study the dynamics of a superfluid vortex in a random potential, as in the inner crust of a neutron star. Below a critical flow velocity of the ambient superfluid, a vortex is ef…
Incompatibility of long-period neutron star precession with creeping neutron vortices
Bennett Link
Aims: To determine whether ``vortex creep'' in neutron stars, the slow motion of neutron vortices with respect to pinning sites in the core or inner crust, is consistent with obser…
Evidence for Heating of Neutron Stars by Magnetic Field Decay
J. A. Pons, B. Link, J. A. Miralles +1
We show the existence of a strong trend between neutron star surface temperature and the dipolar component of the magnetic field extending through three orders of field magnitude,…
A strong correlation in radio pulsars with implications for torque variations
J. O. Urama, B. Link, J. M. Weisberg
We present an analysis of the spin-down parameters for 131 radio pulsars for which has been well determined. These pulsars have characteristic ages ranging from $10^{3} -…
Flux predictions of high-energy neutrinos from pulsars
Bennett Link, Fiorella Burgio
Young, rapidly rotating neutron stars could accelerate ions from their surface to energies of PeV. If protons reach such energies, they will produce pions (with low probab…
TeV mu Neutrinos from Young Neutron Stars
B. Link, Fiorella Burgio
Neutron stars are efficient accelerators for bringing charges up to relativistic energies. We show that if positive ions are accelerated to ~1 PeV near the surface of a young neutr…
