Temperature distribution in magnetized neutron star crusts. II. The effect of a strong toroidal component
U. Geppert, M. Kueker, Dany Page
We continue the study of the effects of a strong magnetic field on the temperature distribution in the crust of a magnetized neutron star (NS) and its impact on the observable surf…
Long Type I X-ray Bursts and Neutron Star Interior Physics
Andrew Cumming, Jared Macbeth, J. J. M. in 't Zand +1
Superbursts are very energetic Type I X-ray bursts discovered in recent years by long term monitoring of X-ray bursters, believed to be due to unstable ignition of carbon in the de…
Superbursts from Strange Stars
Dany Page, Andrew Cumming
Recent models of carbon ignition on accreting neutron stars predict superburst ignition depths that are an order of magnitude larger than observed. We explore a possible solution t…
The Cooling of Compact Stars
Dany Page, Ulrich Geppert, Fridolin Weber
The cooling of a compact star depends very sensitively on the state of dense matter at supranuclear densities, which essentially controls the neutrino emission, as well as on the s…
Dynamical evolution of neutrino--cooled accretion disks: detailed microphysics, lepton-driven convection, and global energetics
William H. Lee, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Dany Page
We present a detailed, two dimensional numerical study of the microphysical conditions and dynamical evolution of accretion disks around black holes when neutrino emission is the m…
