Recent observation of a sudden spin down, occurring on a timescale not exceeding two weeks, of the magnetar 1E2259+586 (see Archibald et al. 2013, where this event was dubbed an `anti-glitch') has not still received any interpretation in…

The "glitch crisis" of Vela-like pulsars has been a great debate recently. It might challenge the standard two-component glitch model, because large fractions of superfluid neutrons are thought to be entrained in the lattices of the crust…

Glitches -- sudden increases in spin rate -- are observed in many pulsars. One mechanism advanced to explain glitches in the youngest pulsars is that they are caused by a starquake, a sudden rearrangement of the crust of the neutron star.…

Pulsars are rotating neutron stars, sweeping the emission regions from the magnetic poles across our line of sight. Isolated neutron stars lose angular momentum through dipole radiation and (possibly) particle winds, hence they slow down…
