Abstract:
Abstract Starquakes probably occur in rapidly spinning or ultra high field neutron stars. In this article, we argue that highly compressed gas containing electron–positron pairs could evaporate and erupt from inside the neutron star when a crack forms and then heals during a starquake. Under the influence of the existing oscillation modes of the star, the crack may have sufficiently large size and long lifetime. An appropriate amount of gas can erupt into the magnetosphere with relativistic and nearly uniform velocity, producing various transient and bursting phenomena.

Abstract:
The time-clustering behavior of the neutron star SGR1806-20 burst sequence (detected by the International Cometary Explorer, ICE) has been analyzed. The presence of two different timescaling regions, related to the "foreshock" and "aftershock" phases, separated by the largest event occurred on November 16, 1983, 8:34 GMT, E = 5.17 · 1041 erg , has been evidenced. The results highlight that starquake foreshocks involve medium timescales from about 30 minutes to approximately 5 days, while starquake aftershocks involve longer timescales ranging up 4 months.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT So far, only transient gravitational waves (GWs) produced by catastrophic events of extra-galactic origin have been detected. However, it is generally believed that there should be also continuous sources of GWs within our Galaxy, such as accreting neutron stars (NSs), that could in principle be detected in the next near future. In fact, in these objects, centrifugal forces can be so strong to break the NS crust (causing a starquake), thus producing a quadrupole moment responsible for the continuous emission of GWs. At equilibrium, the angular momentum gained by accretion and the one lost via GWs emission should balance each other, stopping the stellar spin-up. We hereinafter investigate the above physical picture within the framework of a Newtonian model describing compressible, non-magnetized, and self-gravitating NSs. In particular, we calculate the rotational frequency need to break the stellar crust of an accreting pulsar and we estimate the upper limit for the ellipticity due to this event. We find that the maximum starquake-induced ellipticity ranges from 10−9 to 10−5, depending on the stellar mass and its equation of state. The corresponding equilibrium frequency that we calculate is in good agreement with observations and, for all the scenarios, it is below the higher NS frequency observed of 716.36 Hz. Finally, we also discuss possible observational constraints on the ellipticity upper limit of accreting pulsars.

Abstract:
A large class of gamma-ray burst (GRB) models (overwhelming until recently) involve-the release of energy in a neutron star quake. Even though the extreme isotropy of the GRB sky established by the BATSE experiment has now shifted the interest to cosmological models, the former starquake scenarios are still attractive and may naturally produce a gravitational wave burst which carries most of the released energy. We discuss the prospects for detection of these high-frequency bursts by the forthcoming interferometers and spheroidal antennas, emphasizing the most recent results on the distribution and nature of the GRB sources. We find that, even if the overall picture is correct, the positive detection of GRB-associated gravitational wave bursts is unlikely and therefore these events will not be a prime target for the detectors.

Abstract:
Many different astrophysical events related to pulsars are taught to be due to starquakes, that could be caused by various possible loadings acting on the crust. However, at the present time, there is still a lack of theoretical well based modelling for most of these loadings and, therefore, we have only a very rough knowledge of the physics of neutron stars’ crust response. This PhD work wants to be a first development of a quite realistic calculation of the effects of chosen loadings, being that the forces due to uniform rotation, differential rotation or pinning, on the crust of pulsars. A Newtonian model, already used in Geophysics, has been adapted to the very different physical conditions of neutron stars’ physics and used to describe self-gravitating neutron stars, both in the incompressible and compressible scenario, subjected to different kinds of loadings. In particular, the deformations due to uniform rotation, differential rotation and slack pinning are studied. It is found that the response of the star is very sensitive to the adiabatic index value, while it is weakly influenced by the stellar mass. In all the cases, the strain developed between two glitches is found to be insufficient to break the crust, a result that challenges the standard picture of pulsar glitches based on crustquakes. Finally, attention is focused on accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond pulsars. The scenario is the following: the star spins up due to the accretion of matter thus building up stress; the mass quadrupole moment associated with crustal failures leads to the emission of gravitational waves which, in turn, spins down the star until equilibrium. The equilibrium frequency calculated is found compatible with observations. It is also argued that these gravitational waves could be potentially detected by the LIGO-Virgo interferometers in the near future.

Abstract:
Glitches are sudden increases in the otherwise extremely regular spin rate of pulsars. One theory proposed to account for these glitches is the starquake model, in which the spinup is caused by a sudden rearrangement of the neutron star crust. Starquakes can be expected to excite some of the oscillation modes of the neutron star. These oscillations are of interest as a source of gravitational waves, and may also modify the pulsar radio emission. In this thesis we develop a toy model of the starquake and calculate which modes of the star are excited. We start by making some order-of-magnitude upper estimates on the energy made available by the starquake and the amplitude of the modes excited, before moving on to a more detailed calculation based on a speci�c model of the starquake in which all strain is lost instantaneously from the star at the glitch. To find out which modes are excited by the starquake, we construct initial data describing the change in the star at the glitch, and then project this against the basis of normal modes of the star. We first carry out this procedure for a simplified model in which the star has spun down to zero angular velocity before the starquake. We find that the majority of the energy released goes into a mode similar to the fundamental mode of a uid star. Finally, we describe the extension of this model to the more realistic case where the star is rotating before the glitch. We calculate the change in the normal modes of the star to first order in the rotation; these are no longer orthogonal, but we construct a scheme that still enables us to project our initial data against this set of modes, and discuss some preliminary results of the model.
