Exotic Phases in Magnetars

Abstract

Neutron stars feature extremely high magnetic fields with deduced field strengths of 101510^{15} G in the case of magnetars and potentially much higher values inside of the star. In this context we consider the appearance of ρ\rho^- meson condensation taking into account the effect of the magnetic field. The results show that, depending on parameters, such a condensation in magnetized neutron stars might (just) occur.
