Scientific paper

It is suggested that in neutron stars with proton superconductivity the fluxoids are buoyant. This may lead to a rapid (⪉5×104years) expulsion of the magnetic flux from the superconducting core to the subcrustal region and subsequent decay within the outer crust. The considered effect may be the physical reason why the characteristic time of the decay of pulsar magnetic fields (≡106years) corresponds to the ohmic dissipation time within the neutron star crust.
