Different accretion heating of the neutron star crust during multiple outbursts in MAXI J0556-332
A. S. Parikh, J. Homan, R. Wijnands +11
The transient neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary MAXI J0556332 provides a rare opportunity to study NS crust heating and subsequent cooling for multiple outbursts of the sa…

Deep crustal heating by neutrinos from the surface of accreting neutron stars
F. J. Fattoyev, Edward F. Brown, Andrew Cumming +4
We present a new mechanism for deep crustal heating in accreting neutron stars. Charged pions () are produced in nuclear collisions on the neutron star surface during active a…

Constraints on Bygone Nucleosynthesis of Accreting Neutron Stars
Zach Meisel, Alex Deibel
Nuclear burning near the surface of an accreting neutron star produces ashes that, when compressed deeper by further accretion, alter the star's thermal and compositional structure…
