Extract
It is shown that under certain assumptions the response of a neutron star to a perturbation in its temperature will be an increase in pulse repetition rate. Detailed models are presented which show behavior indistinguishable from the Vela pulsar period jumps. There appears to be no theoretical difficulty in arranging these events to recur every few years.
