Pulsar Spin, Magnetic Fields, and Glitches
M. Ruderman
In the core of a canonical spinning magnetized neutron star(NS) a nearly uniform superfluid neutron vortex-array interacts strongly with a twisted array of magnetic flux-tubes thre…
Mimicking neutron star precession by polar cap current-pattern drifting
M. Ruderman, J. Gil
We propose a model for rotating current patterns within radiopulsar polar cap accelerators which has observational consequences that mimic those which have been attributed to neutr…
Causes and Consequences of Magnetic Field Changes in Neutron Stars
M. Ruderman
Because of the quantum fluid properties of a neutron star core's neutrons and protons, its magnetic field is expected to be coupled strongly to its spin. This predicts a simple evo…
A Biography of the Magnetic Field of a Neutron Star
Malvin Ruderman
After some post-natal cooling, a spinning, magnetized, canonical neutron-star (NS) has a core of superconducting protons, superfluid neutrons, and degenerate extreme relativistic e…
Implications of Low Energy X-ray Emission from Millisecond Radio Pulsars
M. Ruderman
Low energy X-ray emission (0.1-10 keV) from all six millisecond radio pulsars (MSPs) for which such emission has been reported support a proposed pulsar magnetic field evolution pr…
Low-Energy X-ray Emission from Young Isolated Neutron Stars
M. Ruderman
A young neutron star with large spin-down power is expected to be closely surrounded by an e+/- pair plasma maintained by the conversion of gamma-rays associated with the star's po…
