Earthquakes Today

Pulsars are perhaps the most accurate timekeepers in the entire universe. The pulsars themselves are really rapidly spinning neutron stars. Neutron stars are ...

If the pressure becomes too much, the neutron star rearranges itself, triggering a starquake and a realignment of its own interior. When it comes to neutron stars, their complex interiors can also undergo enormous pressures, with components of the neutron star material pressing up against other parts. When these neutron stars spin they blast out beams of radiation that draw circles around the sky. The model is based on earthquakes. Neutron stars are Their results suggest that pulsars may have interiors that are far stranger than can be imagined.
