Optical Identification of the Shortest-period Spider Pulsar System M71E
M71E is a spider pulsar (i.e., a millisecond pulsar with a tight binary companion) with the shortest known orbital period of P = 53.3 minutes, which was discovered by Pan et al.

Optical and Infrared Lightcurve Modeling of the Gamma-ray Millisecond Pulsar 2FGL J2339.6-0532 [PDF]
We report the detection of a quasi-sinusoidally modulated optical flux with a period of 4.6343 hour in the optical and infrared band of the Fermi source 2FGL J2339.7-0531.

Abstract We present a novel nonlinear model for whistler‐mode chorus amplification based on the free‐electron laser (FEL) mechanism. First, we derive the nonlinear collective variable equations for the whistler‐electron interaction. Consistent with in situ satellite observations, these equations predict that a small seed wave can undergo exponential ...

After more than a decade since its discovery, the Galactic center gamma-ray excess - discovered with the Fermi Large Area Telescope - remains puzzling. While the spectrum of the signal can be explained by either dark matter or an unresolved population of

Stem cell spheroids, produced via a high‐throughput microfabrication technique, are transported within a vortex generated at the outlet channels of a cross‐slot millifluidic chip. For Reynolds number exceeding 170–200, intermittent high shear stresses applied to each spheroid within the vortex trigger a massive release of biologically active ...

PSR J1947−1120: A New Huntsman Millisecond Pulsar Binary
We present the discovery of PSR J1947–1120, a new huntsman millisecond pulsar with a red giant companion star in a 10.3 day orbit. This pulsar was found via optical, X-ray, and radio follow-up of the previously unassociated γ -ray source 4FGL J1947.6 ...

The Green Bank North Celestial Cap Survey. VIII. 21 New Pulsar Timing Solutions
We present timing solutions for 21 pulsars discovered in 350 MHz surveys using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT). All were discovered in the Green Bank North Celestial Cap pulsar survey, with the exception of PSR J0957−0619, which was found in the GBT 350 ...

XMM‐Newton Observations of the Peculiar Be X‐Ray Binary A0538‐66
ABSTRACT A0538‐66 is a neutron star/Be x‐ray binary located in the Large Magellanic Cloud and, since its discovery in the 70s, it showed a peculiar behavior that makes it a unique object in the high‐mass x‐ray binaries scene: the extremely eccentric orbit (e=0.72$$ e=0.72 $$), the short spin period of the neutron star (P=69$$ P=69 $$ ms), the episodes ...

The Role of XMM–Newton in the Investigation of Persistent BeXRBs
ABSTRACT The persistent BeXRBs are a class of high‐mass X‐ray binaries (HMXRBs), which are characterized by persistent low X‐ray luminosities (LX~1034$$ {L}_{\mathrm{X}}\sim {10}^{34} $$ erg s −1$$ {}^{-1} $$) and wide (Porb>$$ {P}_{\mathrm{orb}}> $$ 30 days), almost circular orbits. In these sources the NS is slowly rotating (with Pspin$$ {P}_{\mathrm{

Binary and Millisecond Pulsars
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 ...
