49. Magnetic and Thermal Evolution of Neutron Stars with Superfluid and Superconducting Interiors

Clara Dehman (University of Alicante)

Talk

Neutron stars are ultra-dense remnants of massive stellar cores, observable across the electromagnetic spectrum. Their emission reflects a complex interplay of magnetic, thermal, and structural processes operating under extreme conditions of density, temperature, and magnetic field strength—regimes unattainable in terrestrial laboratories. Understanding isolated neutron stars requires studying...

24. Interior Magnetic field in Magnetars

Raj Kishor Joshi (CAMK, Warsaw, Poland)

Talk

Magnetars represent one of the most extreme environments in the universe, where magnetic forces are fundamentally important to understanding their behavior. These objects manifest through energetic transients such as Soft Gamma Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars, yet the configuration and longevity of their internal magnetic architecture remain poorly understood.
I will present results...

39. Turbulence Modelling in Magnetised Neutron Stars

William Cook (FSU Jena)

Talk

Turbulence is a key driver of dynamics in both isolated and binary neutron star (BNS) systems, and can be triggered by magnetic field instabilities. In particular the onset of the Kelvin-Helmholtz and Magnetorotational Instabilities plays a key role in the evolution of the magnetic field in a post-merger remnant from a BNS system. Modelling the impact of turbulence directly in numerical...
