Superfluid turbulence and pulsar glitch statistics
A. Melatos, C. Peralta
Experimental evidence is reviewed for the existence of superfluid turbulence in a differentially rotating, spherical shell at high Reynolds numbers ($\Rey\gsim 10^3$), such as the…
Avalanche dynamics of radio pulsar glitches
A. Melatos, C. Peralta, J. S. B. Wyithe
We test statistically the hypothesis that radio pulsar glitches result from an avalanche process, in which angular momentum is transferred erratically from the flywheel-like superf…
Transitions between turbulent and laminar superfluid vorticity states in the outer core of a neutron star
C. Peralta, A. Melatos, M. Giacobello +1
We investigate the global transition from a turbulent state of superfluid vorticity to a laminar state, and vice versa, in the outer core of a neutron star. By solving numerically…
Global three-dimensional flow of a neutron superfluid in a spherical shell in a neutron star
C. Peralta, A. Melatos, M. Giacobello +1
We integrate for the first time the hydrodynamic Hall-Vinen-Bekarevich-Khalatnikov equations of motion of a -paired neutron superfluid in a rotating spherical shell, usi…
