Multipair contributions to the spin response of nuclear matter
E. Olsson, C. J. Pethick
We analyse the effect of non-central forces on the magnetic susceptibility of degenerate Fermi systems. These include the presence of contributions from transitions to states conta…
Tensor Correlations and Pions in Dense Nuclear Matter
E. Olsson, C. J. Pethick
The study of tensor correlations and pions in dense matter in astronomical contexts has recently acquired renewed importance for a number of reasons. One is the discovery by Akmal,…
Neutron Star Structure
C. J. Pethick, A. Akmal, V. R. Pandharipande +1
A review of properties of matter in the interior of neutron stars is given. Particular attention is paid to recent many-body theory calculations of the properties of dense matter.…
Neutrino-pair bremsstrahlung by electrons in neutron star crusts
A. D. Kaminker, C. J. Pethick, A. Y. Potekhin +2
Neutrino-pair bremsstrahlung by relativistic degenerate electrons in a neutron-star crust at densities (10^9 - 1.5x10^{14}) g/cm^3 is analyzed. The processes taken into account are…
Liquid crystals in the mantles of neutron stars
C. J. Pethick, A. Y. Potekhin
Recent calculations indicate that in the outer parts of neutron stars nuclei are rod-like or slab-like, rather than roughly spherical. We consider the elastic properties of these p…
Effects of Electron Band Structure on Neutrino Pair Bremsstrahlung in Neutron Star Crusts
C. J. Pethick, Vesteinn Thorsson
We calculate the rate of energy emission by bremsstrahlung of neutrino pairs by electrons moving in the crystalline lattice of ions in dense matter in the crust of a neutron star.…
