Thermal Relaxation in Young Neutron Stars
The internal properties of the neutron star crust can be probed by observing the epoch of thermal relaxation. After the supernova explosion, powerful neutrino emission quickly cools the stellar core, while the crust stays hot. The cooling wave then propagates through the crust, due to its finite thermal conductivity. When the cooling wave reaches the surface (age 10−100 yr), the effective tempe...
متن کاملA Young Cooling Neutron Star in the Remnant of Supernova 1987A
We describe the cooling theory for isolated neutron stars that are several tens of years old. Their cooling differs greatly from the cooling of older stars that has beenwell studied in the literature. It is sensitive to the physics of the inner stellar crust and even to the thermal conductivity of the stellar core, which is never important at later cooling stages. The absence of observational e...
متن کاملForecasting neutron star temperatures: predictability and variability.
It is now possible to model thermal relaxation of neutron stars after bouts of accretion during which the star is heated out of equilibrium by nuclear reactions in its crust. Major uncertainties in these models can be encapsulated in modest variations of a handful of control parameters that change the fiducial crustal thermal conductivity, specific heat, and heating rates. Observations of therm...
متن کاملExperimental comparison of thermal neutron absorption cross section in nano and micro particles
The neutron collision cross-section is important in neutron use for a specific job, such as neutron therapy or even in nuclear reactors. In calculating computational codes such as MCNP, only information from the neutron-to-mass collision information contained in the computational code library is used, in the case of nanoscale particles in contrast to the mass of materials and / or particulate m...
متن کاملشبیهسازی مونت کارلو یک دستگاه پرتودهی نوترونی به منظور تعیین بازده آشکارسازهای نوترونهای حرارتی
In this work, a neutron irradiating system containing six Am/Be neutron sources in a graphite moderator, which produces a relatively high and uniform thermal neutron flux in an irradiating cavity at the center of the system , has been simulated .The thermal neutron flux in the center of the system has then been calculated and compared with experimental results measured in a cavity a...
