description

It is shown that, apart from the neutron interaction contribution to the susceptibility of neutron stars, there is an additional contribution coming from the magnetic polarizability beta /sub n/ of individual neutrons. For beta /sub n/ approximately=10/sup -4/fm/sup 3 /, this part overwhelms the interaction contribution for k/sub F/>or approximately=3.5fm/sup -1/. No transition to ferromagnetic state is predicted in the interesting density region.
