Binary Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981
There are now three radio frequency pulsars known to be in binary systems: PSRs 1913+16, 0820+02, and 0655+64. The first of these, discovered in 1974, moves in a tight, highly eccentric orbit with a period of approximately 7h 45m. Its companion has not yet been identified with certainty, but must be a compact object of mass comparable to that of the ...

Binary system delays and timing noise in searches for gravitational waves from known pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The majority of fast millisecond pulsars are in binary systems, so that any periodic signal they emit is modulated by both Doppler and relativistic effects.

Improving Distances to Binary Millisecond Pulsars with Gaia

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Pulsar distances are notoriously difficult to measure, and play an important role in many fundamental physics experiments, such as pulsar timing arrays.

1974: the discovery of the first binary pulsar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The 1974 discovery, by Russell A. Hulse and Joseph H. Taylor, of the first binary pulsar PSR B1913+16, opened up new possibilities for the study of relativistic gravity.

Trompe L'Oeil 'binary' pulsars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1990
A freely precessing pulsar produces pulse phase residuals which can mimic those of a pulsar in a binary orbit. In particular, discrete sets of phase residuals due to precessional motion of an isolated pulsar are sampled; it is shown that this data is well fit by residuals from a binary pulsar in a sufficiently tight orbit.

Relativistic Binary Pulsars with Black Hole Companions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2005
Binaries containing a stellar-mass black hole and a recycled radio pulsar have so far eluded detection. We present a focused investigation of the formation and evolution of these systems in the Galactic disk, highlighting the factors that limit their numbers and the reasons why they may be extremely rare.

A Radio Pulsar/X-ray Binary Link [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
From X-ray Binary to Pulsar Pulsars with millisecond rotational periods are thought to originate from neutron stars in low-mass x-ray binaries that had their spin frequencies increased by long-lasting mass transfer from their companion stars. Using data from a radio pulsar survey, Archibald

Gravity Tests with Radio Pulsars

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
The discovery of the first binary pulsar in 1974 has opened up a completely new field of experimental gravity. In numerous important ways, pulsars have taken precision gravity tests quantitatively and qualitatively beyond the weak-field slow-motion ...

X-Ray Observations of Black Widow Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We describe the first X-ray observations of five short orbital period ($P_B < 1$ day), $\gamma$-ray emitting, binary millisecond pulsars. Four of these, PSRs J0023+0923, J1124$-$3653, J1810+1744, and J2256$-$1024 are `black-widow' pulsars, with ...
