We discuss the effect of a strong magnetic field on neutronsuperfluidity. Based on the attraction in thepair of two neutrons, we derive the Ginzburg–Landau equation in the path-integral formalism by adopting the bosonization technique and leave the next-to-leading order in the expansion of the magnetic field. We determine thephase diagram with temperature, comprising three phases: the uniaxial nematic (UN) phase for-biaxial nematic (BN) and-BN phases in finiteand strongsuch as magnetars, respectively, whereandare dihedral groups. We find that, compared with the leading order in the magnetic field known before, the region of the-BN phase in theplane is extended by the effect of the next-to-leading-order terms of the magnetic field. We also present the thermodynamic properties, such as heat capacities and spin susceptibility, and find that the spin susceptibility exhibits anisotropies in the UN,-BN, and-BN phases. This information will be useful to understand the internal structure of magnetars.
