Abstract
This paper is a discussion of some results from papers by followers of V. A. Ambartsumyan, whose fundamental articles serve as the beginning of research on superdense stars: white dwarfs and neutron stars. Solutions of the Einstein equations are given for the case of axial symmetry and are used to determine the integral parameters of rotating neutron stars and white dwarfs. A theory of magnetic field generation in neutron stars has been developed and is consistent with the existence of high, nonuniform magnetic fields on the order of 1014 G in pulsars. A theory has been proposed for the dynamics of neutron vortices and used to explain the observed relaxation of the angular velocity of pulsars following glitches.
