Typical period and surface magnetic field strength of millisecond pulsars, young pulsars, and magnetars.
| Neutron star | P* (s) | log B* (T) | log aB | log aE | −log b |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Millisecond | 0.005 | 5 | 13.1 / 9.9 / 9.5 | 11.8 / 8.6 / 8.2 | 20.1 / 23.4 / 22.5 |
| Young | 1 | 8 | 18.4 / 15.2 / 14.8 | 14.8 / 11.6 / 11.2 | 22.4 / 25.7 / 24.8 |
| Magnetar | 10 | 10 | 21.4 / 18.2 / 17.8 | 16.8 / 13.6 / 13.2 | 23.4 / 26.7 / 25.8 |
Notes. The relevant parameters without dimension are given by the strength parameters for the magnetic field aB and for the electric field aE and the damping parameter b for electrons / protons / iron nuclei.
