We present a new numerical tool designed to probe the dense layers of neutron star crusts.It is based on the time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with generalized Skyrme nuclear energy-density functionals of the Brussels-Montreal family.We use it to study the time evolution of a nucleus accelerating through superfluid Visor Products neutron medium in the inner crust of a neutron star.We extract an effective mass in the low velocity limit.
We observe a threshold velocity and Android Auto Interface specify mechanisms of dissipation: phonon emission, Cooper pairs breaking, and vortex rings creation.These microscopic effects are of key importance for understanding various neutron star phenomena.Moreover, the mechanisms we describe are general and apply also to other fermionic superfluids interacting with obstacles like liquid helium or ultracold gases.
