The magnetar magnetosphere is gradually twisted by shearing from footpoint motion, and stored magnetic energy also increases at the same time. When a state exceeds a threshold, flares/outbursts manifest themselves as a result of a…

In a previous paper, we reported simulations of the evolution of the magnetic field in neutron star cores through ambipolar diffusion, taking the neutrons as a motionless uniform background. However, in real neutron stars, neutrons are free…

The merger remnant of a binary neutron star coalescence is initially strongly differentially rotating. Some properties of these remnants can be accurately modeled through building equilibrium neutron star models. In the present paper, we…
The gravitational collapse of rapidly rotating massive stars can lead to the onset of the low $T/\|W\|$ instability within the central proto-neutron star (PNS), which leaves strong signatures in both the gravitational wave (GW) and neutrino…
We consider a star as a compressible fluid subject to gravitational and magnetic forces. This leads to an Euler-Poisson system coupled to a magnetic field, which may be regarded as an MHD model together with gravity. The star executes…
Low-mass galaxies radio observations show in many cases surprisingly high levels of magnetic field. The mass and kinematics of such objects do not favour the development of effective large-scale dynamo action. We attempted to check if the…

We consider the magnetic and spin evolution of isolated neutron stars assuming that the magnetic field is initially confined to the crust. The evolution of the crustal field is determined by the conductive properties of the crust which, in…
Fragmentation of highly differentially rotating massive stars that undergo collapse has been suggested as a possible channel for binary black hole formation. Such a scenario could explain the formation of the new population of massive black…
