Weak magnetism effects in the direct Urca processes in cooling neutron stars

Leinson, L. B.

Original · EN

In the mean field approximation, we study the effects of weak magnetism and pseudoscalar interaction in the neutrino energy losses caused by the direct Urca processes on relativistic nucleons in the degenerate baryon matter. Our formula for the neutrino energy losses incorporates the effects of nucleon recoil, parity violation, weak magnetism, and pseudoscalar interaction. For numerical testing of our formula, we use a self-consistent relativistic model of the multicomponent baryon matter. We found that, due to weak magnetism effects, relativistic emissivities increase by approximately 40-50%, while the pseudoscalar interaction only slightly suppresses the energy losses, approximately by 5%.
