High Energy Neutrinos and Photons from Curvature Pions in Magnetars

TL;DR

This paper explores how curvature radiation of pions in magnetars can produce detectable TeV neutrinos and high-energy photons, highlighting potential observational signatures for astrophysical research.

Contribution

It introduces the concept that curvature pion radiation in magnetars can generate observable high-energy neutrinos and photons, expanding understanding of particle emissions in extreme magnetic fields.

Findings

Curvature pion radiation can produce TeV neutrinos detectable by large-scale detectors.

Magnetars can emit high-energy photons through curvature radiation processes.

Potential for new astrophysical observations of neutrinos and photons from magnetars.

Abstract

We discuss the relevance of the curvature radiation of pions in strongly magnetized pulsars or magnetars, and their implications for the production of TeV energy neutrinos detectable by cubic kilometer scale detectors, as well as high energy photons.
