Binary and Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 1998
Our knowledge of binary and millisecond pulsars has greatly increased in recent years. This is largely due to the success of large-area surveys which have brought the known population of such systems in the Galactic disk to around 50.

Algorithmic Pulsar Timer for Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Pulsar timing is a powerful tool that, by accounting for every rotation of a pulsar, precisely measures the spin frequency, spin frequency derivatives, astrometric position, binary parameters when applicable, properties of the interstellar medium, and ...

The Origin of the Binary Pulsar J0737-3039 [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review Letters, 2005
Evolutionary scenarios suggest that the progenitor of the new binary pulsar J0737-3039B \cite{ref1,ref2} was a He-star with $M > 2.1-2.3~\Ms$ \cite{ref3,ref4}. We show that this case implies that the binary must have a large ($>120$ km/s) center of mass velocity.

Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

Binary and Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1994
Most of the ~600 known pulsars are single and located in the disk of our Galaxy. There is circumstantial evidence that the pulsars in this majority are created in supernova (SN) explosions, by the collapse of the cores of massive stars (initial mass M_i ≳ M_(cr) ≃ 8 M_⊙). One is created roughly every 100 y in the Galaxy.

Dynamics and Interactions of Binaries and Neutron Stars in Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
We model the dynamics of test binaries in isotropic, multi-mass models of galactic globular clusters. The evolution of binary orbits through the cluster potentials is modeled, including second order diffusion terms, and probabilities for close encounters

Binary and Other Recycled Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
Binary pulsars and others with weak fields and rapid rotation now number several dozen and appear to have been spun up by close binary mass transfer. Some are lineal descendents of X-ray binaries; others may result from accretion-induced collapse of binary white dwarfs or from captures, exchanges, and collisions in clusters.
