Abstract
I investigate the pairing properties at finite temperature of the Wigner–Seitz cells in the inner crust of a neutron star obtained with the recent Brussels–Montreal Skyrme functional BSk21. In particular I analyse the phenomena of persistence and reentrance of pairing correlations and their impact on the specific heat in the low-density region of the inner crust.
