Abstract
The ROSAT HRI was used to monitor X-ray emission from the Vela pulsar.Six observations span 2.5 yr and three glitches. The summed datayield a determination of the pulse shape, and X-ray emission fromthe pulsar is found to be 12% pulsed with one broad and two narrowpeaks. One observation occurred 15 days after a large glitch. Nochange in pulse structure was observed, and any change in X-ray luminosity,if present, was less than 3%. Implications for neutron star structureare discussed.
