Constraints on the nuclear matter equation of state from pulsar glitches
Description
We study the post-glitch response of four pulsars to obtain lower limits on the total moment of inertia of the inner crust superfluid. In contrast to previous work, our constraints are independent of the form of the crust-superfluid coupling. We conclude that the superfluid must comprise approx-gt 0.8% of the total moment of inertia of the star. This constraint rules out the softest equations of state
