A Theoretical Study of the Magnetically Deformed Inner Crust Matter of Magnetars

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2015-05-27 v1

Abstract

We have studied various physical properties of magnetically deformed atoms and the associated matter, replacing the atoms by the deformed Wigner-Seitz (WS) cells at the crustal region of strongly magnetized neutron stars (magnetars). A relativistic version of Thomas-Fermi (TF) model in presence of strong magnetic field in cylindrical coordinates is used to study the properties of such matter.
