The crustal fraction of moment of inertia in neutron stars is calculated using $\beta$-equilibrated nuclear matter obtained from density dependent M3Y effective interaction. The transition density, pressure and proton fraction at the inner…
We report the results of the spectral analysis of two observations of the Vela pulsar with the Chandra X-ray observatory. The spectrum of the pulsar does not show statistically significant spectral lines in the observed 0.25-8.0 keV band.…
We construct for the first time, the sequences of stable neutron star (NS) models capable of explaining simultaneously, the glitch healing parameters, $Q$, of both the pulsars, the Crab ($Q \geq 0.7$) and the Vela ($Q \leq 0.2$), on the…
Pulsars are spinning extremely rapidly with periods as short as about $1.4$ milliseconds and delays of a few milliseconds per year at most, thus providing the most accurate clocks in the Universe. Nevertheless, sudden spin ups have been…
Using a model for the equation of state and composition of dense matter and the magnitude of singlet proton superconductivity and triplet neutron superfluidity, we perform the first simultaneous fit of neutron star masses and radii…
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…
Using the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter that has been recently constrained by the isospin diffusion data from intermediate-energy heavy ion collisions, we have studied the transition density and pressure at the inner edge…
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…

The mass, radius and crustal fraction of moment of inertia in neutron stars are calculated using $\beta$-equilibrated nuclear matter obtained from Skyrme effective interaction. The transition density, pressure and proton fraction at the…
Pulsar glitches provide a unique way to study neutron star microphysics because short post-glitch dynamics are directly linked to strong frictional processes on small scales. To illustrate this connection between macroscopic observables and…
We complete our study of pulsars' non-uniform surface temperature and of its effects on their soft X-ray thermal emission. Our previous work had shown that, due to gravitational lensing, dipolar fields cannot reproduce the strong pulsations…
We present a detailed analysis of the Vela pulsar's rotational behaviour using approximately 100 months of observational data spanning from September 2016 to January 2025, during which four glitches were identified. Here, we demonstrate the…
We investigated recent observation data of pulsar masses of PSR J0740$+$6620, PSR J0348$+$0432, and PSR J1614$-$2230 based on the extended $\sigma$-$\omega$ model. We assumed that these pulsars are maximal mass compact star, which suggest…
We present high-resolution multi-frequency single-pulse observations of the Vela pulsar, PSR B0833-45, aimed at studying micro-structure, phase-resolved intensity fluctuations and energy distributions at 1.41 and 2.30 GHz. We show that the…
I use a method based on interstellar scintillations for discerning information about source sizes on scales less than one micro-arc sec. I use a comprehensive model for a pulsar signal, scintillated amplitude modulated noise, that includes…
We propose that the \textit{post-glitch} epoch in a Vela-type pulsar corresponds to a transition time in which the broken \textit{crust} is readjusting its temperature and core-\textit{crust} transition pressure after the changes produced…
The 2016 Vela glitch observed by the Mt Pleasant radio telescope provides the first opportunity to study pulse-to-pulse dynamics of a pulsar glitch, opening up new possibilities to study the neutron star's interior. We fit models of the…
We show that the short spin-up time observed for the Vela pulsar during the 1988 ``Christmas'' glitch implies that the coupling time of the pulsar core to its crust is less than $\sim$ 10 seconds. Ekman pumping cannot explain the fast…
The Vela and Geminga pulsars are rotation powered neutron stars, which have been identified in various spectral domains, from the near-infrared to hard $\gamma$-rays. In the near-infrared they exhibit tentative emission excesses, as…
