Equation of state for partially ionized carbon at high temperatures
A. Y. Potekhin, G. Massacrier, G. Chabrier
Equation of state for partially ionized carbon at temperatures T > ~ 10^5 K is calculated in a wide range of densities, using the method of free energy minimization in the framewor…
The magnetic structure of neutron stars and their surface-to-core temperature relation
A. Y. Potekhin, V. Urpin, G. Chabrier
We study the relation between the mean effective surface temperature T_s and the internal temperature T_b for magnetic neutron stars, assuming that the magnetic field near the surf…
Partially ionized atmospheres of neutron stars with strong magnetic fields
A. Y. Potekhin, D. Lai, G. Chabrier +1
We construct hydrogen atmosphere models for strongly magnetized neutron stars in thermodynamic equilibrium, taking into account partial ionization. The presence of bound states aff…
Analytical representations of unified equations of state of neutron-star matter
P. Haensel, A. Y. Potekhin
Analytical representations are derived for two equations of state (EOSs) of neutron-star matter: FPS and SLy. Each of these EOSs is unified, that is, it describes the crust and the…
Cooling of neutron stars: effects of accreted envelopes, magnetic field and crustal superfluidity
G. Chabrier, A. Y. Potekhin, D. G. Yakovlev
We briefly review recent theoretical studies of the effects of accreted envelopes, magnetic fields and crustal superfluidity on the cooling of neutron stars. These effects are espe…
Thermal states of coldest and hottest neutron stars in soft X-ray transients
D. G. Yakovlev, K. P. Levenfish, A. Y. Potekhin +2
We calculate the thermal structure and quiescent thermal luminosity of accreting neutron stars (warmed by deep crustal heating in accreted matter) in soft X-ray transients (SXTs).…
