Nuclear “pasta” structures in low-density nuclear matter and properties of the neutron-star crust
Nuclear “pasta” structures in low-density nuclear matter and properties of the neutron-star crust
In neutron star crust, non-uniform structure of nuclear matter is expected, which is called the "pasta" structure. From the recent studies of giant flares in magnetars, these structures might be related to some observables and physical quantities of the neutron star crust. To investigate the above quantities, we numerically explore …
