Binary and Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]
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
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 ...

Discovery of three binary millisecond pulsars
We report the discovery of three binary millisecond pulsars in circular orbits with low-mass companions from a continuing survey of the southern sky with the Parkes radio telescope. The three pulsars, PSR J0034-0534, PSR J1045-4509, and PSR J2145-0750 have pulse periods of 1.87, 7.47, and 16.05 ms and orbital periods of 1.6, 4.1, and 6.8 days ...

Binary and Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]
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.

Testing extra dimensions with the binary pulsar [PDF]
In this letter we calculate the emission of gravity waves by the binary pulsar in the framework of five dimensional braneworlds. We consider only spacetimes with one compact extra-dimension. We show that the presence of additional degrees of freedom, especially the 'gravi-scalar' leads to a modification of Einstein's quadrupole formula.

A Massive Pulsar in a Compact Relativistic Binary [PDF]
Pulsar Tests GravityBecause of their extremely high densities, massive neutron stars can be used to test gravity. Based on spectroscopy of its white dwarf companion,Antoniadiset al.(p.448) identified a millisecond pulsar as a neutron star twice as heavy as the Sun.

On the detectability of eccentric binary pulsars [PDF]
By generalizing earlier work of Johnston & Kulkarni, we present a detailed description of the reduction in the signal-to-noise ratio for observations of binary pulsars. We present analytical expressions, and provide software, to calculate the sensitivity reduction for orbits of arbitrary eccentricity.

Interpretation of Binary Pulsar Observations [PDF]
The nature, dynamics and evolution of the three known radio pulsar binaries are discussed. The system containing 1913+16 appears to comprise two ~1.4 M⊙ components, and to undergo orbital decay as predicted by general relativity. It is proposed that 1913+16 has a neutron star companion and that 0655+64 and 0820+02 have white dwarf companions which ...

Radiation Dosimetry of Binary Pulsars [PDF]
Companion stars exposed to high energy radiation from a primary neutron star or accreting black hole can experience significant spallation of their heavy elements, so that their atmospheres would be extremely rich in lithium, beryllium, and especially boron. In this paper we note that the detection or non-detection of these elements, and their relative

5‐Fluoro/(trifluoromethoxy)‐2‐indolinone derivatives with anti‐interleukin‐1 activity
Novel 5‐fluoro/(trifluoromethoxy)‐2‐indolinone derivatives were designed and synthesized based on in silico and preliminary in vitro test results from lead compounds. All compounds tested displayed nontoxic IL‐1 receptor inhibitory effects at IC50 values in the range of 10 nM to 13 µM, and seven compounds showed inhibitory responses stronger than the ...
