Scientific paper

The evolution of neutron stars is determined by the evolution of their magnetic fields. The observational evidence for field evolution is presented. Recent observations suggest that the magnetic field of a neutron star initially decays with a timescale of a few million years, but becomes virtually constant at late times. Theoretical models for such a field evolution are discussed.
