Spin Equilibrium of Rapidly Spinning Neutron Stars via Transient Accretion

Sudip Bhattacharyya

Abstract: The concept of spin equilibrium due to an interaction between the stellar magnetosphere and a thin, Keplerian accretion disk, and a well-known formula of the corresponding equilibrium spin frequency, provide a key understanding of spin evolution and the distribution of rapidly spinning neutron stars, viz., millisecond pulsars. However, this concept and formula are for stable accretion, but the mass transfer to most accreting millisecond pulsars is transient and the accretion rate evolves by orders of magnitude… Show more
