Vortex creep against toroidal flux lines, crustal entrainment, and pulsar glitches
E Gügercinoğlu, MA Alpar - The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
ABSTRACT A region of toroidally oriented quantized flux lines must exist in the proton
superconductor in the core of the neutron star. This region will be a site of vortex pinning and …

What does a measurement of mass and/or radius of a neutron star constrain: Equation of state or gravity?
Neutron stars are thought to be excellent laboratories for determining the equation of state
(EoS) of cold dense matter. Their strong gravity suggests that they can also be used to …
