Vortex Pinning in Neutron Stars, Slip-stick Dynamics, and the Origin of Spin Glitches
Bennett Link, Yuri Levin
We study pinning and unpinning of superfluid vortices in the inner crust of a neutron star using 3-dimensional dynamical simulations. Strong pinning occurs for certain lattice orie…

Tangled magnetic field model of QPOs
Joseph Bretz, C. A. van Eysden, Bennett Link
The highly tangled magnetic field of a magnetar supports shear waves similar to Alfvén waves in an ordered magnetic field. Here we explore if torsional modes excited in the stellar…
