Superfluid heat conduction and the cooling of magnetized neutron stars

Superfluid heat conduction and the cooling of magnetized neutron stars [electronic resource]

We report on a new mechanism for heat conduction in the neutron star crust. We find that collective modes of superftuid neutron matter, called superfiuid phonons (sPhs), can influence heat conduction in magnetized neutron stars. They can dominate the heat conduction transverse to magnetic field when...
