Abstract

In this work, we discuss white dwarf pulsars found recently making also reference of the possibility of some SGRs/AXPs being part of this class of pulsars. We also study the properties of very massive compact ultra magnetized white dwarfs that could be the progenitors candidates of super luminous type Ia supernovae, and also a previous stage of these white dwarf pulsars before the magnetic field decay.The structure of this ultra magnetized white dwarfs is obtained by solving the Einstein-Maxwell equations with a poloidal magnetic field in a fully general relativistic approach. The stellar interior is composed of a regular crystal lattice made of carbon ions immersed in a degenerate relativistic electron gas. We find that magnetized white dwarfs violate the standard Chandrasekhar mass limit significantly. We obtain a maximum white dwarf mass of around [Formula: see text] with an equatorial radius [Formula: see text] Km, a central magnetic field of [Formula: see text] G and [Formula: see text] G at the stellar surface.
