ABSTRACT

Canuto and Fassio-Canuto 1973

Canuto, V., and L. Fassio-Canuto, 1973: Photoneutrino energy losses in strong magnetic fields. Phys. Rev. D, 7, 1601-1608, doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.7.1601.

The energy losses by photoneutrinos is computed in the presence of a magnetic field of 1013 G, typical of neutron stars. Plasma effects are not included. The results indicate that for T ≥ 108 °K and densities ρ ≥ 104 g/cm3, the presence of a strong H field decreases the energy losses by at the most a factor between ten and a hundred in the region up to ρ ≃ 106 g/cm3. At higher densities the neutrino emissivities are almost identical. These effects are temperature-dependent and they are less and less pronounced when T ≥ 5×108 °K.
