The neutrino emissivity of strange stars with ultra strong magnetic field
Abstract
The effect of a strong magnetic field on the dominant neutrino emissivity in strange stars is investigated. In an ultra strong magnetic field, there exists an enhanced neutrino emission because the charged particles are confined to the lowest Landau level. The results show that the neutrino emissivity is proportional to T5 instead of conventional T6, which implies more rapid cooling behavior in magnetars than usual strange stars.
