Scientific paper

The theory of the relaxation of pulsar angular velocity is compared with observational data for the first eight glitches of the Vela pulsar. Solutions of the inverse problem in relaxation theory are obtained in the regions of exponential and linear relaxation in the core of the neutron star. From these solutions, a distribution of vortices is found that results in the observed relaxation of the pulsar's angular velocity. It is shown that the pinning of neutron vortices plays the primary role in the region of exponential relaxation, while in the region of linear relaxation one must allow for the variation of the angular velocity of the superfluid component.
