Abstract

Glitches are sudden increases in the rotational frequency (ν) of a neutron star.
Glitches usually occur as fractional increase in the frequency of the order of ⁄
= - .In this work we study the glitch in normal and magnetar pulsar stars,
glitches are small or absent in the millisecond pulsar star because it is old star
whereas the weak glitch activity of young pulsars by the fact that their internal
temperatures are still too high for the crust to store a large stress .The results showed
that NART (pulsed emission only at infrared) normal pulsar has more glitches than
AXP (Anomalous X-ray Pulsar) and HE (Spin-powered pulsar with pulsed emission
from radio to infrared or higher frequencies) stars, as the same time HE stars have
more glitches than AXP, in a good agreement with the previous studies. From the
results can be conclude that study of neutron star glitches is a very important study
in the evolution of neutron star as it helps in probing the neutron star interior.
