Astrophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

A theory of the relaxation of pulsar angular velocity is compared with observational data for the first eight glitches of the Vela pulsar. The inverse problem of the theory of relaxation is considered and solutions of this problem in the regions of exponential and linear relaxation are found. General features in the distribution of neutron vortices in these regions immediately after a glitch are determined. It is shown that these properties may be related to the size of the glitch in pulsar angular velocity.
