Deformation of relativistic magnetized stars
نویسنده
چکیده
We formulate deformation of relativistic stars due to the magnetic stress, considering the magnetic fields to be perturbations from spherical stars. The ellipticity for the dipole magnetic field is calculated for some stellar models. We have found that the ellipticity becomes large with increase of a relativistic factor for the models with the same energy ratio of the magnetic energy to the gravitational energy.

Torsional Oscillations of Magnetized Relativistic Stars
Strong magnetic fields in relativistic stars can be a cause of crust fracturing, resulting in the excitation of global torsional oscillations. Such oscillations could become observable in gravitational waves or in high-energy radiation, thus becoming a tool for probing the equation of state of relativistic stars. As the eigenfrequency of torsional oscillation modes is affected by the presence o...
متن کاملRotating neutron star models with magnetic field
We present the first numerical solutions of the coupled Einstein-Maxwell equations describing rapidly rotating neutron stars endowed with a magnetic field. These solutions are fully relativistic and self-consistent, all the effects of the electromagnetic field on the star’s equilibrium (Lorentz force, spacetime curvature generated by the electromagnetic stress-energy) being taken into account. ...
متن کاملCan magnetic fields be detected during the inspiral of binary neutron stars?
Using accurate and fully general-relativistic simulations we assess the effect that magnetic fields have on the gravitational-wave emission produced during the inspiral and merger of magnetized neutron stars. In particular, we show that magnetic fields have an impact after the merger, because they are amplified by a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, but also during the inspiral, most likely because...
متن کاملNeutrino synchrotron emission from dense magnetized electron gas of neutron stars
We study the synchrotron emission of neutrino pairs by relativistic, degenerate electrons in strong magnetic fields. Particular attention is paid to the case in which the dominant contribution comes from one or several lowest cyclotron harmonics. Calculations are performed using the exact quantum formalism and the quasiclassical approach. Simple analytic fits to the neutrino synchrotron emissiv...

The accurate modelling of astrophysical scenarios involving compact objects and magnetic fields, such as the collapse of rotating magnetized stars to black holes or the phenomenology of γ-ray bursts, requires the solution of the Einstein equations together with those of general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. We present a new numerical code developed to solve the full set of general-relativi...
