High-Energy Radiation from Magnetized Neutron Stars (Theoretical Astrophysics)
HighEnergy Radiation from Magnetized Neutron Stars - Theoretical Astrophysics Author:Peter Meszaros Neutron stars, the most extreme state of matter yet confirmed, are responsible for much of the high-energy radiation detected in the universe. Mèszàros provides a general overview of the physics of magnetized neutron stars, discusses in detail the radiation processes and transport properties relevant to the production and propagati... more »on of high-energy radiation in the outer layers of these objects, and reviews the observational properties and theoretical models of various types of neutron star sources.« less
