Strong magnetic fields are observed in a substantial fraction of upper main sequence stars and white dwarfs. Many such stars are observed to exhibit photometric modulations as the magnetic poles rotate in and out of view, which could be a…
An accepted model for magnetospheric substorms is proposed as the basis for a generic model for magnetic explosions, and is applied to solar flares. The model involves widely separated energy-release and particle-acceleration regions, with…
We present the interior solutions of distributions of magnetised fluid inside a sphere in $f(R,T)$ gravity. The magnetised sphere is embedded in an exterior Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m metric. We assume that all physical quantities are in static…
Solar flares and coronal mass ejections are associated with rapid changes in field connectivity and powered by the partial dissipation of electrical currents in the solar atmosphere. A critical unanswered question is whether the currents…
We study the magnetic interaction between a neutron star and its disk by solving the time-dependent relativistic force-free equations. At the initial state, we assume that the dipole magnetic field of the neutron star connects the neutron…

(Abridged) We propose that giant flares on Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters produce relativistic, strongly magnetized, weakly baryon loaded magnetic clouds, somewhat analogous to solar coronal mass ejection (CME) events. Flares are driven by…
Magnetic massive stars -- which are being discovered with increasing frequency -- represent a new category of wind-shaping mechanism for O and B stars. Magnetic channeling of these stars' radiation-driven winds, the Magnetically Confined…
The highly tangled magnetic field of a magnetar supports shear waves similar to Alfv\'en waves in an ordered magnetic field. Here we explore if torsional modes excited in the stellar interior and magnetosphere can explain the quasi-periodic…
Quantum electrodynamics (QED) effects may be included in physical processes of magnetar and pulsar magnetospheres with strong magnetic fields. Involving the quantum corrections, the Maxwell electrodynamics is modified to non-linear…
The stationary axisymmetric force-free magnetosphere of a pulsar is studied analytically. The pulsar equation is solved in the region close to the magnetic axis. Proceeding from linearization of the current function in the axial region, we…
Neutron stars host the strongest magnetic fields that we know of in the Universe. Their magnetic fields are the main means of generating their radiation, either magnetospheric or through the crust. Moreover, the evolution of the magnetic…
In this study, the non-potential magnetic field parameters of active region NOAA 9077 are investigated; this AR experienced a super-strong X5.7 solar flare. Using advanced extrapolation techniques, the 3D magnetic field structure from…
The rapid, irreversible change of the photospheric magnetic field has been recognized as an important element of the solar flare process. This Letter reports such a rapid change of magnetic fields during the 2011 February 13 M6.6 flare in…
In this work, we study the effects of different magnetic field configurations in neutron stars described by a many-body forces formalism (MBF model). The MBF model is a relativistic mean field formalism that takes into account many-body…
It is well-known that the 5D equations without sources may be reduced to the 4D ones with sources, provided an appropriate definition for the energy-momentum tensor of matter in terms of the extra part of the geometry.The advantage consists…
Explosive events from magnetars are likely due to the catastrophic release of stress in their crusts, but the behavior of crustal matter beyond linear elasticity is poorly understood. We argue here that seminal results from molecular…
The magnetosphere structure of a magnetar is considered in the context of a theory of gravity with dynamical torsion field beyond the standard General Relativity (GR). To this end, the axially symmetric version of the Grad-Shafranov…
