Detection of 16 Gamma-Ray Pulsars Through Blind Frequency Searches Using the Fermi LAT
Pulsars are rapidly-rotating, highly-magnetized neutron stars emitting radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum. Although there are more than 1800 known radio pulsars, until recently, only seven were observed to pulse in gamma rays and these were ...

Timing stability of millisecond pulsars and prospects for gravitational-wave detection [PDF]
Analysis of high-precision timing observations of an array of approx. 20 millisecond pulsars (a so-called "timing array") may ultimately result in the detection of a stochastic gravitational-wave background.

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 ...

Classification of unassociated fermi-LAT sources [PDF]
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space telescope has detected 5788 sources in the 4FGL catalogue. Among them, 271 have been associated to pulsars, 3436 to blazars, and 1782 remain unassociated sources.

The origin of single radio pulsars [PDF]
By comparing relative rates of supernovae versus formation rates of single radio pulsars, recycled pulsars, binary pulsars and X-ray binaries we put strong limits on the progenitors of radio pulsars and on the requirement of an asymmetry in the supernova.

Gamma Ray Pulsars and Opportunities for the MACE Telescope
Rapidly rotating neutron stars with very strong surface magnetic fields are observed to emit pulsed emission in the whole range of electromagnetic spectrum from radio to high-energy gamma rays.

Radio-quiet Gamma-ray Pulsars [PDF]
A radio-quiet γ-ray pulsar is a neutron star that has significant γ-ray pulsation but without observed radio emission or only limited emission detected by high sensitivity radio surveys.

Could acceleration of a pulsar affect braking index?
In the coming era of multi-messenger astrophysics, pulsars might be one of the most possible electromagnetic counterparts of the gravitational wave. The braking indices, which are related closely to the electromagnetic radiation of pulsars, are shown to ...

Discovery of Four Pulsars in a Pilot Survey at Intermediate Galactic Latitudes with FAST
We present the discovery and timing results of four pulsars discovered in a pilot survey at intermediate Galactic latitudes with the Five-hundred Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST). Among these pulsars, two belong to the category of millisecond pulsars (

Two Candidate Pulsar TeV Halos Identified from Property-similarity Studies
Teraelectronvolt halos have been suggested to be a common phenomenon associated with middle-aged pulsars. Based on our recent work on the middle-aged pulsar J0631+1036, which is the only known source positionally coincident with a hard teraelectronvolt γ
