Some of radiopulsars have anomalous braking index values $n = \Omega \ddot{\Omega} / \dot{\Omega}^2 \sim \pm (10^3 \div 10^4) $. It is shown that such values may be related with nondipolar magnetic field. The precession of neutron star lead…

The exteriors of stellar and galactic dynamos are usually modeled as current-free potential fields. A more realistic description might instead be that of a force-free magnetic field. Here, we suggest that, in the absence of outflows,…
