The magnetic field effect on 54 Mn is discussed. The results show that a weak magnetic field makes little effect on β^＋ decay but a strong magnetic field （B 〉 10^11 G） improves β^＋ decay rates obviously. The conclusion derived will benefit to develop further research on nuclear astrophysics in the future.展开更多

The results show that the magnetic field has only a slight effect on the electron capture rates with the range of the magnetic fields （10^9 - 10^13 G） on surfaces of most neutron stars, whereas for some magnetars whose range of the magnetic field is 10^13 - 10^18 G, the electron capture rates of most iron group nuclei would be debased greatly and may be even decreased overrun 3 orders of magnitude by the strong magnetic field.展开更多

The magnetic field will soften the equation of state of the neutron star matters and make an obvious effect on the structure of the rotating neutron star. If the magnetic field is superstrong （B=10^17 T）, the mass, radius, and the deformation will become smaller effectively.展开更多

We investigate the effects of magnetic fields on the structure of isolated magnetars. The stellar structure together with the magnetic field configuration can be obtained at the same time within a self-consistent procedure. The magnetar mass and radius are found to be weakly enhanced by the strong magnetic fields. Unlike other previous investigations, the magnetic field is unable to violate the mass limit of the neutron stars.展开更多

It is found that the charge exchange cross section is decreased while the ionization cross section is increased significantly. The physics of magnetic field effects is analyzed by the time evolution of electron energy and trajectories, and it is found that these effects are induced by the diamagnetic term in the interaction, continuum electron trapping in the target regions and the Lorentz force. The velocity distributions of the ionized electrons, significantly influenced by the applied fields, are also presented.展开更多
