Timing variations in neutron stars : models, inference and their implications for gravitational waves

Timing variations in pulsars, low frequency ubiquitous structure known as timing noise and sudden increases in the rotational frequency which we call glitches, provide a means to study neutron stars. Since the first observations, many models have been proposed, yet no definitive explanation has aris...
