Abstract
In this paper, we have calculated the energy loss in terms of luminosity for neutrinos produced by the annihilation of electron–positron pair in the light of Photo – Neutrino weak interaction with an intense magnetic field. After analytical calculation, we may conclude that the neutrino luminosity increases with the magnetic field in the temperature range of 108 to 1012 Kelvins giving rise to an energy loss channel. This may provide an alternate cooling mechanism for highly magnetized neutron stars. We have also conducted a comparative study of neutrino emission from magnetized neutron stars based on both Photo–Neutrino interaction and Conventional (current – current) weak interaction. We found a remarkable similarity between the two models on temperature versus energy loss behaviour of neutron stars. However, these are found to differ from one another on the overall time scale of evolution.
期刊介绍:
The journal welcomes manuscripts on theoretical models, simulations, and observations of highly energetic astrophysical objects both in our Galaxy and beyond. Among those, black holes at all scales, neutron stars, pulsars and their nebula, binaries, novae and supernovae, their remnants, active galaxies, and clusters are just a few examples. The journal will consider research across the whole electromagnetic spectrum, as well as research using various messengers, such as gravitational waves or neutrinos. Effects of high-energy phenomena on cosmology and star-formation, results from dedicated surveys expanding the knowledge of extreme environments, and astrophysical implications of dark matter are also welcomed topics.
