Binary and Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2005
We review the main properties, demographics and applications of binary and millisecond radio pulsars. Our knowledge of these exciting objects has greatly increased in recent years, mainly due to successful surveys which have brought the known pulsar ...

The Galactic Millisecond Pulsar Population [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
Among the current sample of over 2000 radio pulsars known primarily in the disk of our Galaxy, millisecond pulsars now number almost 200. Due to the phenomenal success of blind surveys of the Galactic field, and targeted searches of Fermi gamma-ray sources, for the first time in over a decade, Galactic millisecond pulsars now outnumber their ...

The characteristics of millisecond pulsar emission: I. Spectra, pulse shapes and the beaming fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We have monitored a large sample of millisecond pulsars using the 100-m Effelsberg radio telescope in order to compare their radio emission properties to the slowly rotating population. With some notable exceptions, our findings suggest that the two groups of objects share many common properties.

Assessing the Role of Spin Noise in the Precision Timing of Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J.725:1607-1619,2010, 2010
We investigate rotational spin noise (referred to as timing noise) in non-accreting pulsars: millisecond pulsars, canonical pulsars, and magnetars. Particular attention is placed on quantifying the strength and non-stationarity of timing noise in millisecond pulsars because the long-term stability of these objects is required to detect nanohertz ...

Swings between rotation and accretion power in a millisecond binary pulsar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is thought that neutron stars in low-mass binary systems can accrete matter and angular momentum from the companion star and be spun-up to millisecond rotational periods.

Multi-Messenger Astrophysics of a Millisecond Pulsar Orbiting around a Massive Black Hole

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Extreme-mass-ratio and intermediate-mass-ratio binaries with a millisecond pulsar are gravitational-wave sources that emit also electromagnetic radiation.

Auroras on Planets around Pulsars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The first extrasolar planets were discovered serendipitously, by finding the slight variation in otherwise highly regular timing of the pulses, caused by the planets orbiting a millisecond pulsar.

Discovery and Timing Analysis of New Pulsars in Globular Cluster NGC 5024: New Observations from FAST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The most distant globular cluster (GC) with known pulsars is NGC 5024 (M53). In this paper, we report the discovery of a new binary millisecond pulsar, PSR J1312+1810E (M53E), and present the new timing solutions for M53B–E based on 22 observations from ...
