Glitches are commonly observed for pulsars, which are explained by various mechanisms.
One hypothesis attributes the glitch effect to the instantaneous moment of inertia change of …

Glitch is supposed to be a useful probe into pulsar's interior, but the underlying physics
remains puzzling. The glitch activity may reflect a lower limit of the crustal moment of inertia …

Over a hundred gravitational-wave signals have now been detected from the mergers of
black holes and neutron stars, but other sources of gravitational waves have not yet been …

We revisit the mechanism of vortex unpinning caused by the neutron-vortex scattering [B.
Layek and PR Yadav, Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 499, 455 (2020) MNRAA4 0035-8711 …

Pulsars undergoing crustquake release strain energy, which can be absorbed in a small
region inside the inner crust of the star and excite the free superfluid neutrons therein. The …

It is believed that cores of neutron stars provide a natural laboratory where exotic high
baryon density phases of quantum chromo dynamics (QCD) may exist. In fact, the …
