Study of the neutron star structure in strong magnetic fields including the anomalous magnetic moments

We study the effects of strong magnetic fields on the neutron star structure. If the interior field of a star is on the same order of the surface field currently observed, the influences of the magnetic field on the star mass and radius are negligible. If one assumes that the internal magnetic field can be as large as that estimated from the scalar virial theorem, considerable effects can be induced. The maximum mass of stars is arisen substantially while the central density is largely suppressed. For two equal-mass stars the radius of the magnetic star can be larger by about 10% $\sim$ 20% than the nonmagnetic star.
