In strongly magnetized plasmas of DA white dwarfs, where the magnetic field B could be as high as ~ (10$^2$ – 10$^5$) Tesla, electrons move along strongly helical trajectories. The allowance for helical trajectories of plasma electrons dramatically changes the Stark width of hydrogen spectral lines compared to all previous calculations. We show analytically that without allowance for this...
Going beyond the fuzzy dark matter model, we present the construction of multi-state configurations of the Gross-Pitaevskii-Poisson system that rules the dynamics of this matter, their stability, mechanism of formation and application in galactic astrophysics.
The localization of energy-momentum for a four-dimensional charged, static, and spherically symmetric, non-singular black hole solution that asymptotically behaves as a Reissner-Nordström solution, is studied. The space-time geometry is distinguished by a distribution function entering the mass function m(r). The non-singular character of the metric is warranted by the coupling of general...
We propose and test a fairly simple idea that could account for the blazar sequence: all jets are launched with similar energy per baryon, independently of their power. For instance, FSRQs, the most powerful jets, manage to accelerate to high bulk Lorentz factor, as observed in the radio. As a result, the emission region will have a rather modest magnetization which will induce a steep...
In this theoretical study, we establish a correlation between the neutron skin thickness and the nuclear symmetry energy for the even-even isotones for magic neutron N = 20, 40, 82, 126, 172 (expected) within self-consistent relativistic mean-field formalism for non-linear NL3* and density-dependent DD-ME2 parameter sets [1-3]. The local density approximation is used to formulate the symmetry...
We study the magnetic field dependence of the masses of pions, diquarks and nucleons in the context of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Eigenvalue equations associated with charged particles are obtained using the Ritus formalism. In this way we fully take into account the existence of non-vanishing Schwinger phases. Our results are compared with those available in the literature obtained using...
We analyse physical grounds for large braking indices of some young radio pulsars and investigated four hypothesis explaining origin of large braking indices: (1) binarity, (2) magnetic field decay, (3) evolution of the obliquity angle, and (4) complicated multipole structure of the poloidal magnetic field. We find that the magnetic field decay is the only plausible explanation for the...
The formation of neutron stars (NSs), both from collapses of massive stars and mergers of compact objects, can usually be indicated by a bright transient emission that is generated from the explosively-ejected material. In particular, as the newborn NSs can rotate very quickly and have a sufficiently high magnetic field, the spin-down of the NSs would provide a remarkable amount of energy to...
One of the most straightforward ways to explain the hard X-ray spectra observed in X-ray binaries is to assume that comptonization of soft photons, originated in the disk, is occurring. The region in which such comptonization takes place, called the corona, is commonly characterized by only two parameters: its thermal energy $kT$ and its optical depth $\tau$. Thus, hard X-ray spectra analysis...
