Magnetic field decay in young radio pulsars

A. P. Igoshev, S. B. Popov

The role of magnetic field decay in normal radio pulsars is still debated. In this paper we present results which demonstrate that an episode of magnetic field decay in hot young n…

Sleeping beasts: strong toroidal magnetic field in quiescent magnetars explains their large pulsed fraction

Andrei P. Igoshev, Rainer Hollerbach, Toby Wood +1

Magnetars are neutron stars (NSs) with extreme magnetic fields of strength - G. They exhibit transient, highly energetic events, such as short X-ray fl…

Braking indices of young radio pulsars: theoretical perspective

A. P. Igoshev, S. B. Popov

Recently, Parthsarathy et al. analysed long-term timing observations of 85 young radio pulsars. They found that 11 objects have braking indices ranging , far from the…

Powering Central Compact Objects with a Tangled Crustal Magnetic Field

Konstantinos N. Gourgouliatos, Rainer Hollerbach, Andrei P. Igoshev

Central Compact Objects (CCOs) are X-ray sources with luminosity ranging between - erg~s, located at the centres of supernova remnants. Some of them have b…

The observed velocity distribution of young pulsars II: analysis of complete PSR

Andrei P. Igoshev

Understanding the natal kicks, or birth velocities, of neutron stars are essential for understanding the evolution of massive binaries as well as double neutron star formation. We…
