Scientific paper

I give a general overview of the theory of neutron star cooling, emphasizing the intuitive understanding of the effects of the various physical ingredients, including the recently proposed accreted envelopes and neutrino emission from Cooper pair breaking and formation. I describe how the present data may be compatible with both the `standard model' and the fast cooling scenarios, with or without invoking extensive presence of baryon pairing.
