Scientific paper

It is reported that the pulsar PSR1737 - 30 has undergone five glitches in the past three years. Although not especially young, this pulsar is glitching at a rate nearly an order of magnitude greater than any other known pulsar. It is speculated that the higher temperatures associated with the youngest pulsars might prevent the buildup of the stresses the sudden release of which is the cause of glitches. If so, this might explain the lower glitch activity now evident in those pulsars that are less than 2000 years old.
