GENERAL RELATIVISTIC EFFECT ON THE ENERGY DEPOSITION RATE FOR NEUTRINO PAIR ANNIHILATION ABOVE THE EQUATORIAL PLANE ALONG THE SYMMETRY AXIS NEAR A ROTATING NEUTRON STAR

    The estimate of the energy deposition rate (EDR) for neutrino pair annihilation has been carried out. The EDR for the neutrinos coming from the equatorial plane of a rotating neutron star is calculated along the rotation axis using the Cook–Shapiro–Teukolsky metric. The neutrino trajectories and hence the neutrinos emitted from the disk are affected by the redshift due to disk rotation and gravitation. The EDR is very sensitive to the value of the temperature and its variation along the disk. The rotation of the star has a negative effect on the EDR; it decreases with increase in rotational velocity.
