Relativistic gravity and binary radio pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesEighth Canadian conference on general relativity and relativistic astrophysics, 1999
Following a summary of the basic principles of pulsar timing, we present a review of recent results from timing observations of relativistic binary pulsars. In particular, we summarize the status of timing observations of the much celebrated original binary pulsar PSR B1913+16, draw attention to the recent confirmation of strong evidence for geodetic ...

The binary and millisecond pulsars

Contemporary Physics, 1992
Abstract Most of the 500 known pulsars are solitary. A recently discovered population of binary pulsars now amounts to about 3% of the total; most of these have very short periods, and many of them are found in Globular Clusters. There is a clear evolutionary link between the X-ray binaries and pulsars. Mass transfer within the binary provides both the

The discovery of the binary pulsar

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1994
Exactly 20 years ago today, on December 8, 1973, I was at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico recording in my notebook the confirming observation of the first pulsar discovered by the search which formed the basis for my Ph.D. thesis. As excited as I am sure I was at that point in time, I certainly had no idea of what lay in store for me in the ...

Binary and Millisecond Pulsars

2014
The first evidence for neutron stars residing in binaries came in the early 60s when Giacconi et al. (1962) discovered the first extrasolar X-ray source, Sco X\(-\)1.

Navigation using binary pulsars

Science China Physics, Mechanics and Astronomy, 2012
The issue of navigation using binary pulsars is investigated in this paper. We show how the effect of the binary motion is incorporated in the navigation measurement equation. Necessary reference systems and time scales are introduced and the transformation between different time scales is derived. Based mainly on Damour and Deruelle’s binary model and

Is something wrong with the binary pulsar?

Nature, 1980
The binary pulsar PSR1913+16 is at present the most interesting object for measuring general relativistic effects1 such as the periastron advance, emission of gravitational waves, and gravitational redshift. It also offers unique possibilities for studying the properties of one or two neutron stars.

Binary and millisecond radio pulsars

Advances in Space Research, 2006
Abstract Recent pulsar surveys, especially those using the multibeam receiver on the Parkes radio telescope, have more than doubled the number of known pulsars, bringing the current total to about 1720. Of these, 171 have millisecond periods, 126 are members of binary systems and 99 are associated with globular clusters. Binary pulsars may be divided
