This book collect the contributions presented at the conference "Isolated Neutron Stars: from the Surface to the Interior", held in London in April 2006. Forty years after the discovery od radio pulsars it presents an up-to-date description of the new vision of isolated neutron stars that has emerged in recent years with the advance of multi-wavelength observations. The great variety of isolated neutron stars, from pulsars to magnetars, some of them discovered very recently and many of them not detectable at radio wavelengths, is amply covered by descriptions of recent observations results and presentations of the latest theoretical efforts.

Abstract
This book collect the contributions presented at the conference "Isolated Neutron Stars: from the Surface to the Interior", held in London in April 2006. Forty years after the discovery od radio pulsars it presents an up-to-date description of the new vision of isolated neutron stars that has emerged in recent years with the advance of multi-wavelength observations. The great variety of isolated neutron stars, from pulsars to magnetars, some of them discovered very recently and many of them not detectable at radio wavelengths, is amply covered by descriptions of recent observations results and presentations of the latest theoretical efforts.Pubblicazioni consigliate
