The magnetic configuration in the plasma-sphere surrounding a neutron star is described in terms of a model equation that is constructed to be valid from the surface of the star to distances of the order of the light speed cylinder and beyond. Significant asymptotic solutions of this equation, that
We study different stages of the neutron star cooling by computing neutron star properties at various temperatures and entropies using an effective chiral model including hadronic and quark degrees of freedom. Macroscopic properties of the star such as mass and radius are calculated and compared wit
