Models of pulsar glitches

B Haskell, A Melatos - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2015 - World Scientific
Radio pulsars provide us with some of the most stable clocks in the universe. Nevertheless
several pulsars exhibit sudden spin-up events, known as glitches. More than forty years after …

A superfluid perspective on neutron star dynamics

N Andersson - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
As mature neutron stars are cold (on the relevant temperature scale), one has to carefully
consider the state of matter in their interior. The outer kilometre or so is expected to freeze to …
