A post-hypercritical accretion small-scale dynamo in newborn neutron stars
David F. Bambague, Cristian G. Bernal, J. A. Rueda
Hypercritical fallback accretion can advect the surface magnetic field of a newborn neutron star into the newly accreted outer layers. Before this material joins the solid crust an…
Vacuum breakdown around a Kerr black hole surrounded by a magnetic field
C. Cherubini, R. Moradi, J. A. Rueda +1
We present the invariant characterization of the region where vacuum breakdown into electron-positron () pairs occurs due to an overcritical electric field, the dyadoregion…
The long-short GRB connection
J. A. Rueda, L. Becerra, C. L. Bianco +4
Long and short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to arise from different and unrelated astrophysical progenitors. The association of long GRBs with supernovae (SNe) and the diffe…
Impact of stratified rotation on the moment of inertia of neutron stars
Jonas P. Pereira, Tulio Ottoni, Jaziel G. Coelho +2
Rigid (Uniform) rotation is usually assumed when investigating the properties of mature neutron stars (NSs). Although it simplifies their description, it is an assumption because w…
