We show a possibility that strong ``magnetic field'' $\sim 10^{15} $G is produced by color ferromagnetic quark matter in neutron stars. In the quark matter a color magnetic field is generated spontaneously owing to Savvidy mechanism and a…
Neutron stars feature extremely high magnetic fields with deduced field strengths of $10^{15}$ G in the case of magnetars and potentially much higher values inside of the star. In this context we consider the appearance of $\rho^-$ meson…

Extremely strong magnetic fields of the order of $10^{15}\,{\rm G}$ are required to explain the properties of magnetars, the most magnetic neutron stars. Such a strong magnetic field is expected to play an important role for the dynamics of…
We consider strong interactions at finite density in mean field theory, through an effective lagrangian that can describe both nuclear matter and quark matter. This lagrangian has three couplings that are all fixed by experiment and no…
