RATIONALE:
To bring together observers and theoreticians to exchange and discuss new
ideas related to neutron star binaries or single neutron stars in a one day workshop.
This meeting is hosted once or twice per year.
|
STRUCTURE OF MEETING:
Each meeting has three sessions. The first session (11:00-13:00)
is dedicated to general news in the broad field of neutron stars and here new
research results will be presented briefly. The afternoon sessions (14:00-17:45, with a coffee break) focus
on a more specific topic, which will be different for each meeting. We aim for short
presentations in the first session, and slightly longer presentations in the afternoon
sessions. The main emphasis is on discussions.
|
TOPIC OF THIS MEETING:
The topic for the afternoon sessions is: INTERMITTENT AND GLITCHING PULSARS
- Spin-down torques acting on pulsars
- Magnetospheric physics
- Relation to timing noise
- Evolutionary link between nulling pulsars, intermittent pulsars, RRAT, CCO, XDINS and magnetars
- Probing neutron star interiors via glitches
