dc.descriptionCooling of neutron stars (NSs) with superfluid cores is simulated taking into account neutrino emission produced by Cooper pairing of nucleons. The critical temperatures of neutron and proton superfluidities, $T_{cn}$ and $T_{cp}$, are assumed to be constant over the NS core, and treated as free parameters. They are constrained using the surface temperatures $T_s$ of isolated NSs (RX J0822-43, PSR 1055-52, 1E 1207-52, Vela, Geminga, PSR 0656+14, RX J0002+62), obtained by interpretation of observed thermal radiation either with black body spectrum or with hydrogen atmosphere models.
