Addressing prior dependence in hierarchical Bayesian modeling for PTA data analysis I: Methodology and implementation
Luigi D'amico, Eleonora Villa, Fatima Modica Bittordo +4
Complex inference tasks, such as those encountered in Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) data analysis, rely on Bayesian frameworks. The high-dimensional parameter space and the strong inte…
Magnetic fields in Accretion Discs around Neutron Stars - Consequences for the change of spin
Luca Naso, John Miller, Wlodek Kluzniak
Accretion disks are ubiquitous in the universe and it is generally accepted that magnetic fields play a pivotal role in accretion-disk physics. The spin history of millisecond puls…
Up to 700k GPU cores, Kepler, and the Exascale future for simulations of star clusters around black holes
P. Berczik, R. Spurzem, L. Wang +9
We present direct astrophysical N-body simulations with up to a few million bodies using our parallel MPI/CUDA code on large GPU clusters in China, Ukraine and Germany, with differ…
Magnetic field structure and torque in accretion discs around millisecond pulsars
L. Naso, W. Kluźniak, J. C. Miller
Millisecond pulsars are rather weakly-magnetized neutron stars which are thought to have been spun up by disc accretion, with magnetic linkage between the star and the disc playing…
Modeling the Spatial Distribution of Neutron Stars in the Galaxy
Ali Taani, Luca Naso, Yingchun Wei +2
In this paper we investigate the space and velocity distributions of old neutron stars (aged 109 to 1010 yr) in our Galaxy. Galactic old Neutron Stars (NSs) population fills a toru…
An investigation of magnetic field distortions in accretion discs around neutron stars - II. Analysis of the toroidal field component
L. Naso, J. C. Miller
Millisecond pulsars are believed to be old pulsars spun up by a surrounding accretion disc. Magnetic fields are thought to play a leading role in this, both by determining the loca…
