Diamagnetic screening of the magnetic field in accreting neutron stars — II. The effect of polar cap widening

Recently, we have proposed a model for the screening of the magnetic field of an accreting neutron star by the accreted material flowing from the polar regions towards the equator and sinking there underneath the surface. In this earlier model, it was assumed that the flow pattern remained stationar...
