Fall-back crust around a quark-nova compact remnant II: The degenerate torus case with applications to AXPs
Rachid Ouyed, Denis Leahy, Brian Niebergal
In the first paper of this series we explored the case where a quark-nova ejecta forms a degenerate shell, supported by the star's magnetic field. Herein, we consider the case wher…

Magnetic Field Decay and Period Evolution of Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars in the Context of Quark Stars
Brian Niebergal, Rachid Ouyed, Denis Leahy
We discuss a model wherein soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs), and radio quiet isolated neutron stars (RQINSs) are all compact objects exhibiting super…
