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…
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…
Electric microfield distributions in electron-ion plasmas
A. Y. Potekhin, G. Chabrier, D. Gilles
The low-frequency electric microfield distribution in a Coulomb plasma is calculated for various plasma parameters, from weak to strong Coulomb coupling and from zero to strong ele…
Coulomb plasmas in outer envelopes of neutron stars
A. Y. Potekhin, G. Chabrier, D. G. Yakovlev
Outer envelopes of neutron stars consist mostly of fully ionized, strongly coupled Coulomb plasmas characterized by typical densities about 10^4-10^{11} g/cc and temperatures about…
Pre-Main Sequence models for low-mass stars and brown dwarfs
I. Baraffe, G. Chabrier, F. Allard +1
We present evolutionary models for low mass stars and brown dwarfs ($m \le 1.2 \msol$) based on recent improvement of the theory: equation of state, atmosphere models, ... We conce…
Partially ionized hydrogen plasma in strong magnetic fields
A. Y. Potekhin, G. Chabrier, Yu. A. Shibanov
We study the thermodynamic properties of a partially ionized hydrogen plasma in strong magnetic fields, B ~ 10^{12}-10^{13} G, typical of neutron stars. The properties of the plasm…
