Event details
Flux tubes in superconducting neutron star cores
Discussion group meeting
Abstract
It is expected that in the interior of neutron stars a proton superconductor coexists with and couples to a neutron superfluid. Using a Ginzburg-Landau approach I will discuss phases of this two-component system at nonzero temperatures and magnetic fields. In particular, I will point out the effect of the superfluid on the presence of magnetic flux tubes.
