Magnetic winding and turbulence in ultra-hot Jupiters

Clàudia Soriano-Guerrero, Daniele Viganò, Rosalba Perna +2

While magnetism in exoplanets remains largely unknown, Hot Jupiters have been considered as natural candidates to harbour intense magnetic fields, both due to their large masses an…

The force-free twisted magnetosphere of a neutron star - II: Degeneracies of the Grad-Shafranov equation

Taner Akgün, Pablo Cerdá-Durán, Juan Antonio Miralles +1

We extend our previous study of equilibrium solutions of non-rotating force-free magnetospheres of neutron stars. We show that multiple solutions exist for the same sets of paramet…

Long-term evolution of the force-free twisted magnetosphere of a magnetar

Taner Akgün, Pablo Cerdá-Durán, Juan Antonio Miralles +1

We study the long-term quasi-steady evolution of the force-free magnetosphere of a magnetar coupled to its internal magnetic field. We find that magnetospheric currents can be main…

The relevance of ambipolar diffusion for neutron star evolution

Andrea Passamonti, Taner Akgün, José A. Pons +1

We study ambipolar diffusion in strongly magnetised neutron stars, with special focus on the effects of neutrino reaction rates and the impact of a superfluid/superconducting trans…

The force-free twisted magnetosphere of a neutron star

Taner Akgün, Juan Antonio Miralles, José A. Pons +1

We present a detailed analysis of the properties of twisted, force-free magnetospheres of non-rotating neutron stars, which are of interest in the modelling of magnetar properties…
