Abstract

Abstract We investigated influence of stellar oscillations on the electrodynamics of pulsars as well as magnetars magnetosphere. Besides finding noticeable modification of electromagnetic field and charge density in the polar cap vicinity of oscillating neutron stars we proposed qualitative hypotheses explaining phenomena of part time pulsars as well as sporadic radio emission from generally radio-quiet magnetars with the help of stellar oscillations.
