Neutron stars typically have magnetic fields of $\sim 10^{12} \rm \ G$. However, if a neutron star's rotation period is comparable to the convective overturn time, magnetic fields can be amplified by helical motion in a mean field dynamo. These highly magnetized neutron stars, magnetars, are born with short periods of
$\sim$ $\sim 1
ms, \ \rm ms$, which allow them to support an efficient $\alpha-\Omega$ dynamo, resulting in large magnetic dipole fields of $10^{14}-10^{15} \rm \ G$ \cite{Duncan_1992}.
%They were first proposed by \cite{Duncan_1992} to explain Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs).
A magnetar of mass $1.4 M_{\odot}$, $R = 10 \ \rm km$, and $P = 1 \ \rm ms$ has a rotational energy of
