7. OUTERCRUST Composition: electrons + (ions) nuclei Electrons (e): constitute a strongly degenerate, almost ideal gas, give the main contribution into the pressure Ions (A,Z): fully ionized by electron pressure, give the main contribution into the density Electron background

8. INNER CRUST Composition: electrons + nuclei + free (dripped) neutrons Electrons (e): constitute a strongly degenerate, ultra-relativistic gas Ions (A,Z): neutron-rich, occupy substantial fraction of volume Free neutrons (n): constitute a strongly degenerate Fermi-liquid, which can be superfuid e+n background

22. Pinning force ・condensation energy (Alpar et al. 1984) pinning energy Ep ~ 1MeV coherence length ξ~10-12 cm lattice constant a ~5×10-12 cm ・cancellation of the elementary pinning force (Jones 1991) rigid vortex --> equal number of pinning sites on either side of the line --> fp ~ 0 ・bending of vortex lines (Link & Epstein 1993) finite tension --> kink --> much more efficient pinning

23. Vortex pinning

24. Kinks propagation along the vortex lines y-component of velocity vortices move together with superfluids Jones et al. 1998 almost no pinning

25. Vortex configurations ・equation of motion of vortex lines ・configurations kinks minimize

26. Dispersion relation for the vortex oscillations kink supply rate required in Vela ~2×１015 s-1 ~1×１016 rad s-1

27. Discussion on vortex pinning We find no unstable mode that grows with time. The vortex equilibrium configurations with static kink structures are stable. Hence, the kink motion as required by Jones is less likely. (2) The kink solution can be expressed as a sum of fourier components of different wave numbers. The dispersion relation shows that the phase velocity of vortex waves depends on the wave number. Hence, even if a kink is formed and start to move, the kink feature will be smeared out during propagation. (3) The vortex equilibrium configuration is composed of the static kink and straight segments. A vortex line in equilibrium lies deep in the pinning potential well and is strongly pinned to the lattice nuclei in its most part, especially when the vortex line is close to the main axis of a crystal lattice. Pinning may be strong enough to explain the large glitches observed in Vela pulsar.
