Abstract

We suggest the generalization of the Anomalous Magneto-Hydro-Dynamics (AMHD) in the chiral plasma of a neutron star (NS) accounting for the mean spin in the ultrarelativistic degenerate electron gas within the magnetized NS core as a continuing source of the chiral magnetic effect. Using the mean field dynamo model generalized in AMHD, one can obtain the growth of a seed magnetic field up to $10^{18}\,\text{G}$ for an old non-superfluid NS at its neutrino cooling era $t < 10^6\,\text{yr}$, while neglecting any matter turbulence within its core and assuming the rigid NS rotation. The application of the suggested approach to the evolution of magnetic fields observed in magnetars, $B\sim 10^{15}\,\text{G}$, should be self-consistent with all approximations used in the suggested laminar dynamo, at least, up to the jumps of growing fields.<br />Comment: 15 pages, 9 eps figures, JCAP latex style; title is modified, minimal changes in the text; version published in JCAP
