Phase transitions can be triggered by a change of density profile in neutron stars as a result of spin-up caused by mass accretion from a companion star. Such a spin evolution is the pathway from old canonical pulsars to millisecond pulsars. A number of x-ray neutron stars have been recently observed by the Rossi x-ray timing explorer (RXTE). Most of their frequencies are clustered in a narrow band with a few at higher frequency. This is the expected signature of a phase transition in the stellar core.
