Magnetic Fields of Neutron Stars : The AMXP Connection
Sushan Konar (NCRA-TIFR, Pune)
TL;DR
This paper reviews the current understanding of magnetic field evolution in neutron stars, focusing on accreting millisecond pulsars (AMXPs) and their significance in binary systems.
Contribution
It highlights the importance of AMXPs in understanding magnetic field evolution in neutron stars, an area with limited existing knowledge.
Findings
AMXPs are a key population for studying magnetic field evolution.
Current understanding of magnetic fields in neutron stars is incomplete.
The role of binary systems in magnetic field dynamics is emphasized.
Abstract
This article briefly reviews our current understanding (or lack thereof) of the evolution of magnetic fields in neutron stars, with an emphasis on the binary systems. In particular, the significance of the newly emerging population of accreting millisecond pulsars (AMXP) is discussed.
