It is shown that the slow glitches in the spin rate of the pulsar B1822-09 can be explained by the reconstruction of the neutron star shape, which is not matched with the star rotation axis. Owing to the evolution of the inclination angle,…
On 2006 August 23 the Crab Pulsar underwent a glitch, that was reported by the Jodrell Bank and the Xinjiang radio observatories. Neither data are available to the public. However, the Jodrell group publishes monthly arrival times of the…
Pulsar glitches are sudden increases in the spin frequency of an otherwise steadily spinning down neutron star. These events are thought to represent a direct probe of the dynamics of the superfluid interior of the star. However glitches…
Pulsar timing at the Mt Pleasant observatory focused on Vela, which could be tracked for 18 hours of the day. These nearly continuous timing records extend over 24 years allowing a great insight into details of timing noise, micro glitches…
PSR J1048$-$5832 (B1046$-$58) is a Vela-like pulsar that has exhibited multiple glitch events. In this study, we analyze the timing data spanning nearly 16 years, acquired from both the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and the Parkes 64 m…
Glitches correspond to sudden jumps of rotation frequency ($\nu$) and its derivative ($\dot{\nu}$) of pulsars, the origin of which remains not well understood yet, partly because the jump processes of most glitches are not well…
We report here on new results of the systematic monitoring of southern glitching pulsars at the Argentine Institute of Radioastronomy. In particular, we study in this work the new major glitch in the Vela pulsar (PSR J0835$-$4510) that…
PSR J0537$-$6910 is the most active glitching pulsar with a glitch rate $\sim0.3$ yr $^{-1}$. We have reanalysed 45 glitches of PSR J0537$-$6910 published in the literature and have done post-glitch timing fits within the vortex creep…
Radio pulsars provide us with some of the most stable clocks in the universe. Nevertheless several pulsars exhibit sudden spin-up events, known as glitches. More than forty years after their first discovery, the exact origin of these…
We report the first detection of a glitch in the radio pulsar PSR J0908$-$4913 (PSR B0906$-$49) during regular timing observations by the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST) as part of the UTMOST project.
Pulsar glitches are sudden increase in their spin frequency, in most cases followed by the long timescale recovery process. As of this writing, about 546 glitches have been reported in 188 pulsars, the Crab pulsar is a special one with…
We present timing solutions from the Fermi-LAT observations of gamma-ray pulsars PSR J0835$-$4510 (Vela), PSR J1023$-$5746, PSR J2111$+$4606, and PSR J2229$+$6114. Data ranges for each pulsar extend over a decade. From data analysis we have…
We have observed a large glitch in the Crab pulsar (PSR B0531+21). The glitch occurred around MJD 58064 (2017 November 8) when the pulsar underwent an increase in the rotation rate of $\Delta \nu = 1.530 \times 10^{-5}$ Hz, corresponding to…
Providing a link between magnetars and radio pulsars, high magnetic field neutron stars are ideal targets to investigate how bursting/magnetospheric activity and braking torque variations are connected to rotational glitches. The last…
We report on a timing programme of 74 young pulsars that have been observed by the Parkes 64-m radio telescope over the past decade. Using modern Bayesian timing techniques, we have measured the properties of 124 glitches in 52 of these…
We are undertaking an extensive X-ray monitoring campaign of the two Crab-like pulsars in the Large Magellanic Clouds, PSR B0540-69 and PSR J0537-6910. We present our current phase-connected timing analysis derived from a set of 50 pointed…

We report a glitch-like pulse frequency deviation from the simple spin-down law in an anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 4U 0142+61 detected by ASCA observations. We also found a significant pulse profile change after the putative glitch. The…
A striking feature of the Vela pulsar (PSR J0835$-$4510) is that it undergoes sudden increases in its spin frequency, known as glitches, with a fractional amplitude on the order of $10^{-6}$ approximately every 900 days. Glitches of smaller…
From 1995 to 1999, daily monitoring of the radio emission from the Crab pulsar at the Green Bank and Jodrell Bank observatories revealed a series of six sudden rotational spinups or glitches, doubling the number of glitches observed for…
