Optical pulsations from isolated neutron stars

R. P. Mignani

Published 2011-11-23Version 1

Being fast rotating objects, isolated neutron stars (INSs) are obvious targets for high-time resolution observations. With the number of optical/UV/IR INS detections now increased to 24, timing observations become more and more important in INS astrophysics.
