General-relativistic pulsar magnetospheric emission [PDF]
Most current pulsar emission models assume photon production and emission within the magnetosphere. Low frequency radiation is preferentially produced in the vicinity of the polar caps whereas the high-energy tail is shifted to regions closer but still inside the light-cylinder.

Generation of relativistic particles in pulsar magnetospheres
The problem - fundamental for the physics of pulsars - of determining the global structure of the magnetosphere in a self-consistent way has not yet been solved satisfactorily. We report on some progress in this direction, which we have achieved by studying the trajectories of individual charged particles in the electromagnetic vacuum fields of an ...

Testing general relativity with black hole-pulsar binaries
Binary pulsars allow us to carry out precision tests of gravity and have placed stringent bounds on a broad class of theories beyond general relativity. Current and future radio telescopes, such as FAST, SKA, and MeerKAT, may find a new astrophysical system, a pulsar orbiting around a black hole, which will provide us a new source for probing gravity ...

Pulse shapes of radio pulsars at 4.85 GHz [PDF]
. We present pulse shapes of 87 pulsars at 4.85 GHz. Pulse widths and flux densities are measured. The frequency dependence of the prole shape and the pulse width is discussed.

Random Number Generation from Pulsars
Pulsars exhibit signals with precise inter-arrival times that are on the order of milliseconds to seconds, depending on the individual pulsar. There are subtle variations in the timing of pulsar signals. We show that these variations can serve as a natural entropy source for the creation of Random Number Generators (RNGs).

Testing General Relativity with Pulsar Timing Arrays
Pulsar timing arrays are a promising tool for probing the universe through gravitational radiation. A variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic background of gravitational waves (GWs) in the pulsar timing array (PTA) frequency band.

High-Energy Emission from Rotation-Powered Pulsars [PDF]
Thirty-five years after the discovery of rotation-powered pulsars, we still do not understand their pulsed emission at any wavelength. In the last few years there have been some fundamental developments in acceleration and emission models.

Rotochemical heating in millisecond pulsars [PDF]
Rotochemical heating originates in a departure from beta equilibrium due to spin-down compression in a rotating neutron star. The main consequence is that the star eventually arrives at a quasi-equilibrium state in which the thermal photon luminosity ...
