On intrinsic magnetic moments in black hole candidates.

ROBERTSON S.L. and LEITER D.J.

Abstract (from CDS):

In previous work, we found that many of the spectral properties of low-mass X-ray binaries, including galactic black hole candidates, could be explained by a magnetic propeller model that requires an intrinsically magnetized central object. Here we describe how the Einstein field equations of general relativity and equipartition magnetic fields permit the existence of highly redshifted, extremely long-lived collapsing radiating objects. We examine the properties of these collapsed objects and discuss characteristics that might lead to their confirmation as the source of black hole candidate phenomena.
