On the angular momentum of the neutron star

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

It is shown that the mass loss due to rotation-driven hydrodynamical instability during the catastrophic collapse of the star is small. Neutron star is formed with a large rotational kinetic energy and the spin-down takes place in the following life of neutron star as a pulsar.
