Characteristic electromagnetic waves caused by tensorial and possible nontensorial thermal high-frequency gravitational waves from magnetars

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2019
Interaction between the gravitational waves (GWs) and the strong magnetic fields would lead to the perturbed electromagnetic waves (EMWs). Magnetars can have ultra-strong surface magnetic fields ∼1011Tesla, and meanwhile, they would generate the thermal ...

Supernova remnants with magnetars: Clues to magnetar formation [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Space Research, 2008
I discuss the lack of observational evidence that magnetars are formed as rapidly rotating neutron stars. Supernova remnants containing magnetars do not show the excess of kinetic energy expected for such a formation scenario, nor is there any evidence for a relic pulsar wind nebula.

The strongest magnetic fields in the universe: How strong can they become?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2014
Magnetic fields in the universe are in general weak, of the order of µGauss only. However, in compact objects they assume extraordinarily large values. These are produced by gravitational collapse of massive magnetised objects.

Long-duration Gamma-Ray Burst Progenitors and Magnetar Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Millisecond magnetars produced in the center of dying massive stars are one prominent model to power gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, their detailed nature remains a mystery. To explore the effects of the initial mass, rotation rate, wind mass loss, and

MAGNETARS: FACT OR FICTION? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics E, 2011
Anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are enigmatic pulsar-like objects. The energy budget is the fundamental problem in their studies. In the magnetar model, they are supposed to be powered by the extremely strong magnetic fields (≳ 1014 G ) of neutron stars.

THERMOPLASTIC WAVES IN MAGNETARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
Magnetar activity is generated by shear motions of the neutron star surface, which relieve internal magnetic stresses. An analogy with earthquakes and faults is problematic, as the crust is permeated by strong magnetic fields, which greatly constrain crustal displacements.

Magnetic Reconnection in the Space Sciences: Past, Present, and Future

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 125, Issue 2, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Magnetic reconnection converts, often explosively, stored magnetic energy to particle energy in space and in the laboratory. Through processes operating on length scales that are tiny, it facilitates energy conversion over dimensions of, in some cases, hundreds of Earth radii.
