Neutron star seismology
Abstract
I will provide an overview of recent improvements in our models for vibrating neutron stars, discussing the role of composition, heat, crust elasticity and superfluidity. I will explain how the results may impact on observations, in particular related to magnetar QPOs and future gravitational-wave searches.
