We suggest a new mean field dynamo model in anomalous MagnetoHydroDynamics (AMHD) accounting for the mean spin (polarization) of the magnetized chiral (ultrarelativistic) plasma of a neutron star (NS). For simplicity we consider a non-superfluid NS with its rigid rotation neglecting also any matter turbulence (convection) within a star. On this way, we recover the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) as a possible source for the amplification of a seed, sufficiently strong magnetic field, $Bsim 10^{13},text{G}$, up to values $Bgtrsim 10^{18},text{G}$ in old NSs, having ages $tgtrsim 10^6,text{yr}$. The important issue in AMHD model suggested is the continuous evolution of the chiral imbalance providing the CME for these ages, $partial_tmu_5 (t) eq 0$, in spite of the fast spin-flip in Coulomb collisions in the dense NS plasma that leads to vanishing $mu_5to 0$ at an earlier epoch in the corresponding protoneutron star. In contrast to the conventional mean-field dynamos, the dynamo drivers in the model are produced due to magnetic field generated at the previous stages of stellar evolution. It makes our model basically nonlinear.

We propose the mean field dynamo model for the generation of strongest magnetic fields, $Bsim 10^{15},{rm G}$, in a neutron star (NS) accounting for the chiral magnetic effect (CME) driven by the shock in a supernova (SN) progenitor of that NS. The t
emperature jump at a narrow shock front, where an initial magnetic field existing in inflowing matter rises sharply, is the source of the CME that prevails significantly the erasure of the CME due to the spin-flip through Coulomb collisions in plasma. The growth of the magnetic field just behind the shock given by the instability term $ ablatimes (alpha {bf B})$ in induction equation, stops after a successful SN explosion that throws out the mantle of a protoneutron star. As a result, such an explosion interrupts the transfer of strongly magnetized plasma from the shock onto NS surface and leads to the saturation of the magnetic field. Assuming the rigid protostar rotation, we employ the mean field dynamo, which is similar to the $alpha^2$-dynamo known in the standard magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The novelty of our model is that $alpha^2$-dynamo is based on concepts of particle physics, applied in MHD, rather than by a mirror asymmetry of convective vortices in the rotating convection.
Isolated neutron stars show a diversity in timing and spectral properties, which has historically led to a classification in different sub-classes. The magnetic field plays a key role in many aspects of the neutron star phenomenology: it regulates th
e braking torque responsible for their timing properties and, for magnetars, it provides the energy budget for the outburst activity and high quiescent luminosities (usually well above the rotational energy budget). We aim at unifying this observational variety by linking the results of the state-of-the-art 2D magneto-thermal simulations with observational data. The comparison between theory and observations allows to place two strong constraints on the physical properties of the inner crust. First, strong electrical currents must circulate in the crust, rather than in the star core. Second, the innermost part of the crust must be highly resistive, which is in principle in agreement with the presence of a novel phase of matter so-called nuclear pasta phase.
We investigate the effect of a strong magnetic field on the structure of neutron stars in a model with perturbative $f(R)$ gravity. The effect of an interior strong magnetic field of about $10^{17 sim 18}$ G on the equation of state is derived in the
context of a quantum hadrodynamics (QHD) model. We solve the modified spherically symmetric hydrostatic equilibrium equations derived for a gravity model with $f(R)=R+alpha R^2$. Effects of both the finite magnetic field and the modified gravity are detailed for various values of the magnetic field and the perturbation parameter $alpha$ along with a discussion of their physical implications. We show that there exists a parameter space of the modified gravity and the magnetic field strength, in which even a soft equation of state can accommodate a large ($> 2$ M$_odot$) maximum neutron star mass through the modified mass-radius relation.
We explore the thermal and magnetic-field structure of a late-stage proto-neutron star. We find the dominant contribution to the entropy in different regions of the star, from which we build a simplified equation of state for the hot neutron star. Wi
th this, we numerically solve the stellar equilibrium equations to find a range of models, including magnetic fields and rotation up to Keplerian velocity. We approximate the equation of state as a barotrope, and discuss the validity of this assumption. For fixed magnetic-field strength, the induced ellipticity increases with temperature; we give quantitative formulae for this. The Keplerian velocity is considerably lower for hotter stars, which may set a de-facto maximum rotation rate for non-recycled NSs well below 1 kHz. Magnetic fields stronger than around $10^{14}$ G have qualitatively similar equilibrium states in both hot and cold neutron stars, with large-scale simple structure and the poloidal field component dominating over the toroidal one; we argue this result may be universal. We show that truncating magnetic-field solutions at low multipoles leads to serious inaccuracies, especially for models with rapid rotation or a strong toroidal-field component.
We present models of temperature distribution in the crust of a neutron star in the presence of a strong toroidal component superposed to the poloidal component of the magnetic field. The presence of such a toroidal field hinders heat flow toward the
surface in a large part of the crust. As a result, the neutron star surface presents two warm regions surrounded by extended cold regions and has a thermal luminosity much lower than in the case the magnetic field is purely poloidal. We apply these models to calculate the thermal evolution of such neutron stars and show that the lowered photon luminosity naturally extends their life-time as detectable thermal X-ray sources.
