Neutrino production mechanisms in strongly magnetized quark matter: Current status and open questions

Igor A. Shovkovy, Ritesh Ghosh

We review the main neutrino emission mechanisms operating in dense quark matter under strong magnetic fields, with particular emphasis on conditions expected in the interiors of co…

Magnetoviscosity of relativistic plasma

Ritesh Ghosh, Igor A. Shovkovy

Using first-principles quantum field-theoretical methods, we investigate the shear and bulk viscosities of strongly magnetized relativistic plasmas. The analysis is performed withi…

Photon emission from weakly magnetized neutral pions

Xinyang Wang, Fan Lin, Igor Shovkovy

Using a hadronic framework, we derive an explicit expression for photon production from neutral pions in a weak background magnetic field. Our calculation is built on the proton tr…

Review of heat and charge transport in strongly magnetized relativistic plasmas

Igor A. Shovkovy, Ritesh Ghosh

We review field-theoretic studies of charge transport in hot relativistic plasmas under strong magnetic fields and extend the analysis to thermal conductivity. The calculations rel…

Neutrino-antineutrino synchrotron emission from magnetized dense quark matter

Ritesh Ghosh, Igor A. Shovkovy

Using the Kadanoff-Baym formalism, we perform a detailed study of neutrino-antineutrino synchrotron emission from strongly magnetized, dense quark matter under conditions relevant…

Neutrino energy and momentum emission from magnetized dense quark matter

Ritesh Ghosh, Igor A. Shovkovy

Using first-principles field-theoretic methods, we investigate neutrino emission from strongly magnetized dense quark matter under conditions relevant to compact stars. We develop…
