Three-dimensional band-structure calculations in the BCS approximation within HFB theory find that only 8% of free neutrons participate in superflow at baryon density 0.03 fm^{-3}, independent of the pairing gap.
BSk31 calculations find Z=40 equilibrium throughout the inner crust density range with clusters impermeable to neutron superfluid, producing EOS similar to BSk24 but altered pairing fields.
