Book excerpt: The gravitational aether theory is a modification of General Relativity that decouples vacuum energy from gravity, and thus can potentially address the cosmological constant problem. The classical theory is distinguishable from General Relativity only in the presence of relativistic pressure (or vorticity). Since the interior of neutron stars has high pressure and as their mass and radius can be measured observationally, they are the perfect laboratory for testing the validity of the aether theory. In this thesis, we first solve the hydrostatic equations of stellar structure for the gravitational aether theory and find the predicted mass-radius relation of nonrotating neutron stars using two different realistic proposals for the equation of state of nuclear matter. We find that the maximum neutron-star mass predicted by the aether theory is 12%-16% less than the maximum mass predicted by general relativity assuming these two equations of state. We then study the dynamics of a neutron star in the aether theory and establish that a Cauchy problem can be defined. We derive the dynamical equations, and through analyzing them, we find two modes, one of which is well-posed (expansion of matter in the aether frame) and the other is not well-posed (collapse of matter in the aether frame). Starting from a hydrostatic neutron star configuration that we perturb by adding extrinsic curvature (and radial velocity), we numerically evolve the Einstein field equations for the aether theory in the well-posed mode and find that it evolves towards the not well-posed regime. This feature may pose a serious challenge to our initial value formulation of the aether theory. Whether an alternative formulation can handle the collapsing neutron stars is a question of utmost importance for the viability of the aether theory. It has been clear for some time now that super-critical surface magnetic fields, exceeding 4 x 10^13 G, exist on a subset of neutron stars. These magnetars may harbor interior fields many orders of magnitude larger, potentially reaching equipartition values. However, the impact of these strong fields on stellar structure has been largely ignored, potentially complicating attempts to infer the high density nuclear equation of state. In this thesis, we assess the effect of these strong magnetic fields on the mass-radius relationship of neutron stars. We employ an effective field theory model for the nuclear equation of state that includes the impact of hyperons, anomalous magnetic moments, and the physics of the crust. We consider two magnetic field geometries, bounding the likely magnitude of the impact of magnetic fields: a statistically isotropic, tangled field and a force-free configuration. In both cases even equipartition fields have at most a 30% impact on the maximum mass. However, the direction of the effect of the magnetic field depends on the geometry employed - force-free fields leading to reductions in the maximum neutron star mass and radius while tangled fields increase both - challenging the common intuition in the literature on the impact of magnetic fields.

Book Synopsis Neutron Star Electromagnetic Field Structure by : Hugh O. Thurman (III.)
Download or read book Neutron Star Electromagnetic Field Structure written by Hugh O. Thurman (III.) and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation investigates the neutron star magnetic field from generation to radiation production. We have investigated the spontaneous magnetization process to explain the magnetic field generation. This magnetization is then applied to determine the electromagnetic field structure of the neutron star. As an application of these two calculations, we briefly investigate several radiation mechanisms that are closely related to stellar magnetic fields. Neutron star magnetic field generation is studied through the spontaneous magnetization process. This process was studied in the non-relativistic, ultra-relativistic, and rigorous relativistic dispersion regimes for the neutrons. Both analytical and numerical approaches show that a phase transition is present for a density near 10 38 cm -3 and a temperature near 10 9 K . This density is consistent with most neutron star models. Using the magnetized interior, the neutron star electromagnetic field is derived from the vector potential. The derived magnetic field is more complicated than just a magnetic dipole which is the most common approximation to the magnetic field. The electromagnetic field structure is derived under the Goldreich-Julian approach. Finally this electromagnetic field is applied to three radiation mechanisms in attempt to understand the high-frequency radiation observed from neutron stars. The processes studied are curvature radiation, pair production, and synchrotron radiation. The curvature radiation is most greatly affected by the electromagnetic field because the radius of curvature is reduced by a factor 10 when just the quadrapole term is included. This directly affects the number of photons energetic enough to undergo pair production. These electron-positron pairs are also more energetic and the synchrotron radiation spectrum is affected by not only the injection angle but the magnetic field curvature as well.
Book Synopsis Exciting Interdisciplinary Physics by : Walter Greiner
Download or read book Exciting Interdisciplinary Physics written by Walter Greiner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear physics is an exciting, broadly faceted field. It spans a wide range of topics, reaching from nuclear structure physics to high-energy physics, astrophysics and medical physics (heavy ion tumor therapy). New developments are presented in this volume and the status of research is reviewed. A major focus is put on nuclear structure physics, dealing with superheavy elements and with various forms of exotic nuclei: strange nuclei, very neutron rich nuclei, nuclei of antimatter. Also quantum electrodynamics of strong fields is addressed, which is linked to the occurrence of giant nuclear systems in, e.g., U+U collisions. At high energies nuclear physics joins with elementary particle physics. Various chapters address the theory of elementary matter at high densities and temperature, in particular the quark gluon plasma which is predicted by quantum chromodynamics (QCD) to occur in high-energy heavy ion collisions. In the field of nuclear astrophysics, the properties of neutron stars and quark stars are discussed. A topic which transcends nuclear physics is discussed in two chapters: The proposed pseudo-complex extension of Einstein's General Relativity leads to the prediction that there are no black holes and that big bang cosmology has to be revised. Finally, the interdisciplinary nature of this volume is further accentuated by chapters on protein folding and on magnetoreception in birds and many other animals.

Download or read book Relativistic Density Functional For Nuclear Structure written by Jie Meng and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-01-11 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide a detailed introduction to the state-of-the-art covariant density functional theory, which follows the Lorentz invariance from the very beginning and is able to describe nuclear many-body quantum systems microscopically and self-consistently. Covariant density functional theory was introduced in nuclear physics in the 1970s and has since been developed and used to describe the diversity of nuclear properties and phenomena with great success.In order to provide an advanced and updated textbook of covariant density functional theory for graduate students and nuclear physics researchers, this book summarizes the enormous amount of material that has accumulated in the field of covariant density functional theory over the last few decades as well as the latest developments in this area. Moreover, the book contains enough details for readers to follow the formalism and theoretical results, and provides exhaustive references to explore the research literature.
Book Synopsis Magnetic Neutron Diffraction by : Yurii A. Izyumov
Download or read book Magnetic Neutron Diffraction written by Yurii A. Izyumov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inter action between the magnetic field generated by the neutron and the magnetic moment of atoms containing unpaired electrons was experimentally demonstrated for the first time about twenty years ago. The basic theory describing such an in teraction had already been developed and the first nuclear reactors with large available thermal neutron fluxes had recently been con structed. The power of the magnetic neutron interaction for in vestigating the structure of magnetic materials was immediately recognized and put to use where possible. Neutron diffraction, however, was practicable only in countries with nuclear reactors. The earliest neutron determinations of magnetic ordering were hence primarily carried out at Oak Ridge and Brookhaven in the US, at Chalk River in Canada and at Harwell in England. Diffraction patterns from polycrystalline ferromagnets and antiferromagnets are interpretable if produced by simple spin arrays. More complex magnetic scattering patterns could often be unravelled, in terms of a three-dimensional array of atomic moments, if the specimen studied is a single crystal. The devel opment of sophisticated cryogenic equipment, with independently alignable magnetic fields, opened the way to greater complexity in the magnetic structures that could be successfully determined, as did also the introduction of polarized neutron beams. By the end of the 'sixties, many countries were contributing significantly to neutron diffraction studies of a wide variety of magnetic materials.
Book Synopsis Neutron Stars, Black Holes, and Gravitational Waves by : James J Kolata
Download or read book Neutron Stars, Black Holes, and Gravitational Waves written by James J Kolata and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2019-05-09 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, published in 1915, made a remarkable prediction: gravitational radiation. Just like light (electromagnetic radiation), gravity could travel through space as a wave and affect any objects it encounters by alternately compressing and expanding them. However, there was a problem. The force of gravity is around a trillion, trillion, trillion times weaker than electromagnetism so the calculated compressions and expansions were incredibly small, even for gravity waves resulting from a catastrophic astrophysical event such as a supernova explosion in our own galaxy. Discouraged by this result, physicists and astronomers didn't even try to detect these tiny, tiny effects for over 50 years. Then, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, two events occurred which started the hunt for gravity waves in earnest. The first was a report of direct detection of gravity waves thousands of times stronger than even the most optimistic calculation. Though ultimately proved wrong, this result started scientists thinking about what instrumentation might be necessary to detect these waves. The second was an actual, though indirect, detection of gravitational radiation due to the effects it had on the period of rotation of two 'neutron stars' orbiting each other. In this case, the observations were in exact accord with predictions from Einstein's theory, which confirmed that a direct search might ultimately be successful. Nevertheless, it took another 40 years of development of successively more sensitive detectors before the first real direct effects were observed in 2015, 100 years after gravitational waves were first predicted. This is the story of that hunt, and the insight it is producing into an array of topics in modern science, from the creation of the chemical elements to insights into the properties of gravity itself.
