Abstract:The number of sudden spin-ups in radio pulsars known as pulsar glitches has increased over the years. Though a consensus has not been reached with regards to the actual cause of the phenomenon, the electromagnetic braking torque on the crust quantified via the magnitude of pulsar spin frequency first derivative, ν is a key factor in mechanisms put across toward the understanding of the underlying principles involved. The glitch size has been used to establish a quantity used to constrain the mean possible chan… Show more
