Superfluid Spin-up: Three-dimensional Simulations of Post-glitch Dynamics in Neutron Star Cores

Neutron stars show a steady decrease in their rotational frequency, occasionally interrupted by sudden spin-up events called glitches. The dynamics of a neutron star after a glitch involve the transfer of angular momentum from the crust (where the glitch is presumed to originate) to the liquid core,...
