Glitches; the Link Between the Typical Radio Pulsars and the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars Jinrong Lin & Shuangnan Zhang, 2003, in preparation Physics department & Center for Astrophysics in Tsinghua University
Contents • Brief introduction to the timing feature of AXP • Introduction to pulsar glitches and the post-glitch recovery • Explanations for the age problem of PSR B1757-24 • The fate of PSR B1757-24 (a future candidate of Anomalous X-ray Pulsar). • Conclusions and discussion
What is AXP (Anomalous X-ray Pulsar) Mereghetti et al., 2002
Theoretical models for pulsar glitches; star quake and vortex creep
Average ratio of permanent changes to slowdown rate For Vela 0.00092 For Crab 0.00009
Fate of pulsars in accretion model (P. Chatterjee et al. 2000)
Chandra detection is consistent with standard magnetospheric emission (Kaspi et al. 2001)
Conclusions and discussion • New model bases on observation; glitches • We should carefully estimate the pulsars’ ages • the fate of a pulsar depends on its post-glitch recovery type. • The population of AXPs given by our model is reasonable.
