Timeline for Do neutron stars have something like a gamma-ray photosphere? Are gamma rays from below it limited more by the nuclei or electrons?

I know it's a complex topic, but if restricted to say tens to hundreds of keV gamma rays that could be used to identify isotopes and some representative neutron star if such a thing exists, would that be narrow enough to write a short answer? | |

| Mar 18, 2019 at 7:16 | comment | added | ProfRob | It is a photosphere. What provides the opacity? Yes, nuclei and electrons. Nuclei provide absorption at discrete frequencies, that are doubtless severely broadened by pressure and magnetic fields. Electrons provide Compton scattering. Photoelectric absorption and pair production will also feature. | |
