Description
We calculate the elastic properties of the outer crust of Neutron Stars (NSs) under the approximation of the one component plasma (OCP) in the high density limit. An electron sector under a degenerate Fermi sea is considered. This is of interest for the modelling of the gravitational wave signal strength emitted in the violent events of NS mergers and NS continuous emission. We use Molecular Dynamics simulations at finite temperature with Ewald sums and extract the relevant elastic quantities such as the stress tensor components for the long range multipolar expansion.
