    • Abstract

       

      There are two types of timing irregularities seen in pulsars: glitches and timing noise. Both of these phenomena can help us to probe the interior of such exotic objects. This paper presents a brief overview of the observational and theoretical aspects of pulsar timing irregularities and the main results from the investigationsof these phenomena in India. The relevance of such Indian programs for monitoring of young pulsars with the square kilometer array (SKA) is presented, highlighting possible contributions of the Indian neutron star community to the upcoming SKA endeavor.

      Posted on January 27, 2016

      Since January 2016, the Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy has moved to Continuous Article Publishing (CAP) mode. This means that each accepted article is being published immediately online with DOI and article citation ID with starting page number 1. Articles are also visible in Web of Science immediately. All these have helped shorten the publication time and have improved the visibility of the articles.
