TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the expulsion of the magnetic field from the superconducting core of a neutron star and its subsequent decay in the crust and show that the hypothesis on magnetic field expulsion induced by the neutron-star spin-down is adequate only for a relatively weak initial magnetic field B≈1011 G. This causes a considerable delay in the core flux expulsion if the initial field strength is larger than 1011G.

TL;DR: In this paper, a reference study for a displaced Lagrange point space weather mission is presented, which adopts a strong micro-spacecraft philosophy to deliver a low mass platform and payload which can be accommodated on the DLR/ESA Gossamer-3 technology demonstration mission.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the thermal, magnetic and rotational evolution of isolated neutron stars assuming that the dipolar magnetic field is confined to the crust of the star, and they used a fully general relativistic formalism not only for the thermal but also for the magnetic part, and included par- tial general relatival effects in the rotational part.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the model of flux expulsion from the superfluid and superconductive core of a neutron star, developed by Konenkov & Geppert (2000), both to neutron star models based on different equations of state and to different initial magnetic field structures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the non-linear evolution of magnetic fields in neutron star crusts with special attention to the influence of the Hall drift, and they showed that Hall drift influenced Ohmic dissipation takes place in the inner crust of a neutron star on a timescale of 1 Myr.
