We present numerical simulations of a self-sustaining magnetic field in a differentially rotating non-convective stellar interior. A weak initial field is wound up by the differential rotation; the resulting azimuthal field becomes unstable…
We further develop the Tayler--Spruit dynamo theory, based on the most efficient instability for generating magnetic fields in radiative layers of differentially rotating stars. We avoid the simplifying assumptions that either the $\mu$--…
We investigate stationary axisymmetric configurations of magnetized stars in the framework of general relativistic ideal magnetohydrodynamics. Our relativistic stellar model incorporates a toroidal magnetic field and meridional flow in…
We show that the r-mode instability can generate strong toroidal fields in the core of accreting millisecond quark stars by inducing differential rotation. We follow the spin frequency evolution on a long time scale taking into account the…
The interior of a neutron star is likely to be predominantly a mixture of superfluid neutrons and superconducting protons. This results in the quantisation of the star's magnetic field into an array of thin fluxtubes, producing a…
To properly understand the physics of upper main sequence stars it is particularly important to identify the origin of their magnetic fields. Recently, we confirmed that magnetic fields appear in Ap stars of mass below 3 M_sun only if they…
Magnetic perturbations to the frequencies of low degree, high radial order, axisymmetric pulsations in stellar models permeated by large scale magnetic fields are presented. Magnetic fields with dipolar, quadrupolar and a superposition of…
Observations of magnetic A, B and O stars show that the poloidal magnetic flux per unit mass has an upper bound of 10^-6.5 G cm^2/g. A similar upper bound is found for magnetic white dwarfs even though the highest magnetic field strengths…
A detailed stability analysis is presented for the de Sitter solution with a homogeneous magnetic field that was recently found in the context of a $U(1)$ gauge theory nonminimally coupled to scalar-tensor gravity. The magnetic field is…
The processes contributing to the evolution of an initially weak magnetic field in a differentially rotating star are reviewed. These include rotational smoothing (akin to convective expulsion) and a list of about 5 instabilities, among…
We show that magnetic fields stronger than about $10^{15}$ G are able to suppress the development of the hydrodynamical bar-mode instability in relativistic stars. The suppression is due to a change in the rest-mass density and angular…
The magnetic field in stellar radiation zones can play an important role in phenomena such as mixing, angular momentum transport, etc. We study the effect of rotation on the stability of a predominantly toroidal magnetic field in the…
Unveiling the evolution of toroidal field instability, known as Tayler instability, is essential to understand the strength and topology of the magnetic fields observed in early-type stars, in the core of the red giants, or in any stellar…
Magnetic A stars represent about $5\%$ of the upper main sequence stars and exhibit highly ordered, very stable and often very strong magnetic fields. They frequently show both, brightness- and spectral line profile variations synchronised…
(Abridged) We develop a theoretical framework to construct axisymmetric magnetic equilibria in stars, consisting of both poloidal and toroidal magnetic field components. In a stationary axisymmetric configuration, the poloidal current is a…
The stability of toroidal magnetic fields in rotating radiative stellar zones is studied for realistic values of both the Prandtl numbers. The two considered models for the magnetic geometry represent fields with odd and even symmetry with…
Stars are, generically, rotating and magnetised objects with a misalignment between their magnetic and rotation axes. Since a magnetic field induces a permanent distortion to its host, it provides effective rigidity even to a fluid star,…
A recipe is presented to construct an analytic, self-consistent model of a non-barotropic neutron star with a poloidal-toroidal field of arbitrary multipole order, whose toroidal component is confined in a torus around the neutral curve…
In the framework of Einstein-Maxwell-axion theory we consider a static field configuration in the outer zone of a magnetic star. We assume that this field configuration is formed by the following interacting quartet: a spherically symmetric…
Recent numerical magnetohydrodynamic calculations by Braithwaite and collaborators support the `fossil field' hypothesis regarding the origin of magnetic fields in compact stars and suggest that the resistive evolution of the fossil field…
