Neutron Star Superfluidity, Dynamics and Precession
M. Ali Alpar
Basic rotational and magnetic properties of neutron superfluids and proton superconductors in neutron stars are reviewed. The modes of precession of the neutron superfluid are disc…
Accretion Models for Young Neutron Stars
M. Ali Alpar
Interaction with possible fallback material, along with the magnetic fields and rotation rates at birth should determine the fates and categories of young neutron stars. This paper…
Pulsar Glitch Behaviour and AXPs, SGRs and DTNs
M. Ali Alpar
Large pulsar glitches seem to be common to all radio pulsars and to exhibit a universal behaviour connecting the rate of occurrence, event size and interglitch relaxation that can…
Post-Glitch RXTE-PCA Observations of the Vela Pulsar
M. Atakan Gurkan, Altan Baykal, M. Ali Alpar +2
We report the results of analysis of observations of the Vela Pulsar by PCA on RXTE. Our data consists of two parts. The first part contains observations at 1, 4, and 9 days after…
Isolated thermal neutron stars, SGRs and AXPs: propellers and early accretors with conventional magnetic fields?
M. Ali Alpar
The similarity of rotation periods from three interesting classes of neutron stars, the anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs), the soft gamma ray repeaters (SGRs) and the dim isolated the…
On the outburst light curves of soft X-Ray transients as response of the accretion disk to mass deposition
Unal Ertan, M. Ali Alpar
We note that the solution of accretion disk dynamics for an initial delta-function mass distribution gives a light curve that fits both the rise and the decay pattern of the outbur…
