Abstract: | Using available observational data on supernova SN 1987A, firm quantitative lower limits on the rotation period of the central pulsar (assuming the pulsar luminosity to power the supernova light curve) are derived. It is also demonstrated that pulsars born in type II supernovae are, in general, unlikely to be fast pulsars. |
