Description
We present a series of numerical simulations of the pair creation process in the electrosphere of strange star using the Vlasov–Maxwell equations. The mechanism of pair creation in the electrosphere of compact objects is revisited, paying attention to evaporation of electrons and acceleration of electrons and positrons, which were previously not addressed in the literature.
