Superfluid Dynamics in Neutron Star Crusts
Superfluid Dynamics in Neutron Star Crusts
A simple description of superfluid hydrodynamics in the inner crust of a neutron star is given. Particular attention is paid to the effect of the lattice of nuclei on the properties of the superfluid neutrons, and the effects of entrainment, the fact that some fraction of the neutrons are locked …
