Abstract The rotational deformations of two kinds of neutron stars are calculated by using Hartle's slow-rotation formulism. The results show that only the faster rotating neutron star gives an obvious deformation. For the slow rotating neutron star with a period larger than hundreds of millisecond, the rotating deformation is very weak.
