Scientific paper

This paper reviews the information on neutron stars that has been obtained from observations of pulsars and pulsing X-ray stars, with emphasis on results from timing studies. Included are summaries of the most recent theoretical work on neutron star structure and the current evidence concerning neutron star masses and radii. Also included are discussions of large frequency jumps and small-scale timing irregularities, the description of the latter phenomenon in terms of random noise processes, and the use of both as probes of the internal structure and dynamical properties of neutron stars. Finally, some of the most promising directions for future work are briefly noted.
