AI Thread Summary
Magnetars, a type of neutron star, possess extraordinarily strong magnetic fields, with estimates ranging from 100 million to 100 billion teslas. This immense magnetic flux density makes them some of the most powerful magnetic entities in the universe. The discussion highlights the curiosity about quantifying the magnetic strength of magnetars. The provided information clarified the range of their magnetic field strength effectively. Understanding magnetars contributes to the broader knowledge of astrophysical phenomena.

Since neutron stars have on of the strongest magnetic fields in the universe and a magnetar is neutron star with a super massive or large magnetic field, it most likely has the largest magnetic flux density in the universe so i was wondering what the Tesla was of a magnetar?

Thanks that helped me a lot!
 
You're welcome!
 
I was using the Smith chart to determine the input impedance of a transmission line that has a reflection from the load. One can do this if one knows the characteristic impedance Zo, the degree of mismatch of the load ZL and the length of the transmission line in wavelengths. However, my question is: Consider the input impedance of a wave which appears back at the source after reflection from the load and has traveled for some fraction of a wavelength. The impedance of this wave as it...
