Magnus mountains on spinning neutron stars
Yashaswi Gangwar, David Ian Jones
We investigate the formation of a "Magnus mountain'' on a neutron star, arising from the non-axisymmetric Magnus force acting on the elastic crust by pinned superfluid vortices. Su…
Probing Neutron Star Interiors and the Properties of Cold Ultra-dense Matter with the SKAO
Avishek Basu, Vanessa Graber, Marcus E. Lower +19
Matter inside neutron stars is compressed to densities several times greater than nuclear saturation density, while maintaining low temperatures and large asymmetries between neutr…

Observation of discontinuities in the periodic modulation of PSR B1828-11
Adriana Dias, Gregory Ashton, Julianna Ostrovska +2
PSR B1828-11 is a radio pulsar that undergoes periodic modulations (~500 days) of its spin-down rate and beam width, providing a valuable opportunity to understand the rotational d…
Applying the starquake model to study the formation of elastic mountains on spinning neutron stars
Yashaswi Gangwar, David Ian Jones
When a neutron star is spun-up or spun-down, the changing strains in its solid elastic crust can give rise to sudden fractures known as starquakes. Early interest in starquakes foc…
