Thermal evolution of neutron stars is known to depend on the properties of superdense matter in neutron star cores. We suggest a statistical analysis of isolated cooling middle-aged neutron stars and old transiently accreting…
Neutron stars are usually assumed to be cold; however, in certain dynamical astrophysical scenarios such as newly born neutron stars or binary star mergers, the temperature effects play a non-negligible role. We systematically derive the…
The diffusive thermal conductivity of neutrons in dense matter [$\rho \sim (1 - 8) \times 10^{14}$ g cm$^{-3}$] of neutron star cores is calculated. The contribution from neutron--neutron and neutron--proton collisions is taken into…
