THE DISTURBANCE OF A MILLISECOND PULSAR MAGNETOSPHERE [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pulsar timing has enabled some of the strongest tests of fundamental physics. Central to the technique is the assumption that the detected radio pulses can be used to accurately measure the rotation of the pulsar. Here, we report on a broadband variation in the pulse profile of the millisecond pulsar J1643−1224.

Structure and stability of differentially rotating compact stellar objects
Abstract Depending on the dynamics of a binary neutron star merger, the collision may result in a differentially rotating compact object. Differentially rotating stars can sustain a total mass considerably higher than that of a uniformly rotating star, giving rise to “hypermassive” objects like hypermassive neutron stars.

Progress and Challenges in Electromechanical Coupling of Radio Telescopes
Radio astronomy is a discipline of dynamics and wonders. The vast universe has many secrets to unravel. As one of the important facilities in this discipline, radio telescopes play a key role in collecting astronomical data and unraveling mysteries.

Transitional Millisecond Pulsars
Millisecond pulsars in tight binaries have recently opened new challenges in our understanding of physical processes governing the evolution of binaries and the interaction between astrophysical plasma and electromagnetic fields. Transitional systems that showed changes from rotation-powered to accretion powered states and vice versa have bridged the ...

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.

Electrotherapies for Glioblastoma
Electrotherapy uses electric fields to target various biological mechanisms for therapeutic outcomes. The current state of intermediate frequency electric fields including tumour‐treating fields, and reversible/irreversible electroporation are discussed in both pre‐clinical and clinical models of glioblastoma.

Design and evaluation of a scalable Internet of Things backend for smart ports
Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, when adequately integrated, cater for logistics optimisation and operations' environmental impact monitoring, both key aspects for today's EU ports management. This article presents Obelisk, a scalable and multi‐tenant cloud‐based IoT integration platform used in the EU H2020 PortForward project.

An ultraluminous nascent millisecond pulsar [PDF]
Abstract If the ultraluminous source (ULX) M82 X-2 sustains its measured spin-up value of $\dot{\nu }= 10^{-10}\,{\rm s^{-2}}$, it will become a millisecond pulsar in less than 105 yr. The observed (isotropic) luminosity of 1040 erg s−1 also supports the notion that the neutron star will spin up to a millisecond period upon accreting ...
