Scientific paper

Thermal X-radiation from hot neutron stars could provide unique information about the star's surface structure. Due to the commonly assumed high stellar magnetic field of the order of one-trillion G the optical properties of the surface will be drastically altered. The thermally emitted spectrum differs considerably from a black-body spectrum, thus allowing conclusions about temperature and density of the surface matter as well as the determination of the magnitude of the surface magnetic field.
