Abstract

We present a study of the excitation spectra and of the spectral functions for the elementary excitations in superfluid neutron star matter below the crust. We restrict the analysis to the proton and electron components within the Random Phase Approximation generalized to the superfluid case. The excitation spectrum shows the interplay of these two components and their relevance for the excitation modes. The results are relevant for neutrino physics and thermodynamical processes in neutron stars.
