Can someone explain to me how a neutron star (I'm assuming that it has no charge even on the microscopic level) can have a magnetic field? And even if I assume that there is some residual charge left after the collapse, how could the magnetic poles point in significantly different direction from the rotational poles?
My only conjecture that I could come up with is that the quark spins in the neutrons themselves are all alligned (from one neutron to the next).
