On the pulsar spin frequency derivatives and the glitch activity

Innocent O. Eya, Jibrin A. Alhassan, Evaristus U. Iyida +2

The number of sudden spin-ups in radio pulsars known as pulsar glitches has increased over the years. Though a consensus has not been reached with regards to the actual cause of th…

On the challenges of Angular Momentum Transfer Mechanism of Pulsar Glitches

I. O. Eya, C. I. Eze, E. U. Iyida

The angular momentum transfer mechanism of pulsar glitches for over four decades now stands as standalone theory with regards to glitch sizes and inter-glitch time intervals. Howev…

On the bimodal nature of the distributions of pulsar glitch sizes

I. O. Eya, E. U. Iyida, C. I. Eze

Pulsar glitches are sudden spin-ups in pulsar spin frequency (). The glitch size, , is a key parameter in any mechanism puts across towards the understanding of the events…

Microglitches in radio pulsars: the role of strange nuggets

Innocent Okwudili Eya, Evaristus Uzochukwu Iyida, Johnson Ozoemene +2

Strange Nuggets are believed to be among the relics of the early universe. They appear as dark matter due to their low charge-to-mass ratio. Their distribution is believed to be th…

Entrainment factor on individual glitch fractional moment of inertia

Innocent O. Eya, Johnson O. Urama, Augustine E. Chukwude

The superfluid in the inner crust of neutron star is assumed to be the reservoir of momentum released in pulsar glitch. Recently, due to crustal entrainment, it is debatable whethe…

On the distributions of pulsar glitch sizes and the inter-glitch time intervals

Innocent O. Eya, Johnson O. Urama, Augustine E. Chukwude

The glitch size, , inter-glitch time interval, and frequency of glitches in pulsars are key parameters in discussing glitch phenomena. In this paper, the glitch si…
