Scientific paper

This study evaluates the contributions to the electrical resistivity of neutron star crusts due to phonon scattering at high and low temperatures, due to scattering from charge disorders, and due to scattering from dislocations. Results indicate that decay of pulsar magnetic fields can take place only if they are significantly hotter than cooling theory predicts, if their crusts are exceedingly impure, or if their crusts are made up of an exceedingly fine mosaic of crystallites.
