We study neutrino emission from a normal, ungapped, quark phase in the core of a compact star. Neutrino emission from non-interacting quark matter leads to an emissivity that scales as $\epsilon\sim T^7$. We show that the emissivity is…
Magnetars are a subclass of neutron stars whose intense soft-gamma-ray bursts and quiescent X-ray emission are believed to be powered by the decay of a strong internal magnetic field. We reanalyze neutrino emission in such stars in the…

It is believed that quark matter can exist in neutron star interior if the baryon density is high enough. When there is a large isospin density, quark matter could be in a pion condensed phase. We compute neutrino emission from direct Urca…

Magnetars are neutron stars endowed with surface magnetic fields of the order of $10^{14}-10^{15}$~G, and with presumably much stronger fields in their interior. As a result of Landau quantization of electron motion, the neutron-drip…
The emissivity for the neutrino pair synchrotron radiation in strong magnetic fields has been calculated both analytically and numerically for high densities and moderate temperatures, as can be found in neutron stars. Under these…
In this work we investigate the effect a crystalline quark-hadron mixed phase can have on the neutrino emissivity from the cores of neutron stars. To this end we use relativistic mean-field equations of state to model hadronic matter and a…
We report on the effects of strong magnetic fields on neutrino emission in the modified Urca process. We show that the effect of Landau levels on the various Urca pairs affects the neutrino emission spectrum and leads to an angular…
The effect of a strong magnetic field on the dominant neutrino emissivity in strange stars is investigated. In ultra strong magnetic field, there exists an enhanced neutrino emission because the charged particles are confined to the lowest…
Some neutron stars known as magnetars possess very strong magnetic fields, with surface fields as large as $10^{15}\,\rm G$ and internal fields that are possibly stronger. Recent observations of the radio pulsar GLEAM-X J1627 suggest it may…
If deconfined quark matter exists inside compact stars, the primary cooling mechanism is neutrino radiation via the direct Urca processes d->u+e+antinu_e and u+e->d+nu_e. Below a critical temperature, T_c, quark matter forms a colour…
