Internal magnetic fields of pulsars, white dwarfs, and other stars.
Abstract
The possibility that the very early magnetic fields in pulsars and other stars have a large number of nodes in the radial function, has been considered by some authors. However, these analyses have not taken into account the fact that this large number of nodes implies large internal magnetic fields. Such large fields could affect the interior dynamics and may also give rise to stability problems.
