摘要
We briefly review selected results in astrophysics of neutron stars (NSs) obtained during the last two years, focusing on isolated radioquiet objects. We discuss in some detail the population synthesis of close-by isolated NSs (INSs), the spectra of INSs, the detection of spectral features in these sources (including cyclotron features), and the recent results on velocity distribution of NSs and accretion onto INSs from the interstellar medium.
