Spatial distribution of accreting isolated neutron stars

Astrophysics 2016-02-10 v1

Abstract

We present here the computer model of the distribution of the luminosity, produced by old isolated neutron stars (OINSs) accreting from the interstellar medium (ISM). We show, that for different mean velocities of OINSs the distribution of the luminosity has a torus-like structure, with the maximum at 5kpc\approx 5 kpc.
