DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jacobus Diener (Stellenbosch University)\nIt is well
  known that neutron stars have very strong magnetic fields and that these 
 fields impact the behaviour of the star. The focus of our research is on t
 he interaction between the magnetic field and the constituent matter in th
 e neutron star’s interior. In particular we investigate the possibility 
 of a ferromagnetic phase in the neutron star interior being the source of 
 the star’s ultra-strong magnetic field.  Considering such a phase provid
 es us with a feedback mechanism between the constituent matter and the mag
 netic field and vice versa\, which we believe is a necessary component in 
 understanding the evolution of the neutron star’s magnetic field.  In th
 is talk we will shortly introduce a description of ferromagnetism in the n
 eutron star interior.  We will also discuss the impact of such a phase as 
 well as allude to possible observational consequences.\n\nhttps://events.s
