A Brief, Biased View of Neutron Star Cooling

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT This is a concise and non‐technical review of topics related to neutron star (NS) cooling, for both young NSs and NSs in low‐mass x‐ray binaries. Neutrino emission from the NS core drives cooling rates, via different processes including Urca processes and pair breaking and formation at the neutron superfluid critical temperature.

Spectral Studies of Super‐Eddington Accreting Neutron Stars in the Magellanic Clouds

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Major outbursts of BeXRBs offer a unique laboratory for studying accretion onto magnetized neutron stars (NSs) over a large dynamic range. The accreting material is entrained from the accretion disk by the strong magnetic field, and then channeled onto the NS, forming a so‐called accretion column (AC).

Binary Pulsars: Observations and Implications [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
The Galaxy contains a large number of neutron stars in gravitation-ally bound binary systems. Among the most fruitful of these to study have been the binary radio pulsars, of which seven are now known. Unlike the “accretion-powered” neutron stars located in mass-exchanging X-ray binary systems, the “rotation-powered” binary radio pulsars are found in ...

Follow-up Timing of 12 Pulsars Discovered in Commensal Radio Astronomy FAST Survey

The Astrophysical Journal
We present phase-connected timing ephemerides, polarization pulse profiles, and Faraday rotation measurements of 12 pulsars discovered by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) in the Commensal Radio Astronomy FAST Survey.

An Alternative Explanation for the Helium Star Pulsar Binary J1928+1815: The Most Heavyweight Black Widow System to Date

The Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of deep near-infrared imaging of the recently discovered helium star pulsar binary J1928+1815 situated in the Galactic plane. Our observations did not achieve significant detections, providing limiting magnitudes of J = 23.7 and H =

The Anomalous Acceleration of PSR J2043+1711: Long-period Orbital Companion or Stellar Flyby?

The Astrophysical Journal
Based on the rate of change of its orbital period, PSR J2043+1711 has a substantial peculiar acceleration of 3.5 ± 0.8 mm s ^–1 yr ^–1 , which deviates from the acceleration predicted by equilibrium Milky Way (MW) models at a 4 σ level.

Exploring Unusual High-frequency Eclipses in MSP J1908+2105

The Astrophysical Journal
This paper presents a comprehensive study of the eclipse properties of the spider millisecond pulsar (MSP) J1908+2105, using wide-band observations from the uGMRT and Parkes UWL. For the first time, we observed that this pulsar exhibits extended eclipses

Verification of f(R)-gravity in binary pulsars

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
We develop the parameterized post-Keplerian approach for class of analytic f (R)-gravity models. Using the double binary pulsar system PSR J0737-3039 data we obtain restrictions on the parameters of this class of f (R)-models and show that f (R)-gravity ...

Eccentric Binary Millisecond Pulsars

, 2009
In this paper we review the recent discovery of several millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in eccentric binary systems. Timing these MSPs we were able to estimate (and in one case precisely measure) their masses. These results suggest that, as a class, MSPs have a much wider range of masses (1.3 to > 2 solar masses) than the normal and mildly recycled ...
