Some characteristics of neutron star models are described. These include: the physics of the crystalline crust, the superfluid properties of the neutrons and protons, and the presence of rotational vortices in these superfluids. The possible relationship of some of these properties to the behavior of the Crab Nebula pulsar is described.
