Confronting the Neutron Star Population with Inverse Cascades

The origin and evolution of magnetic fields of neutron stars from birth have long been a source of debate. Here, motivated by recent simulations of the Hall cascade with magnetic helicity, we invoke a model where the large-scale magnetic field of neutron stars grows as a product of small-scale turbu...
