With the great success of LTE(-A) outdoor, LTE-based small cell technology has become popular and is penetrating indoor enterprise environment, co-existing with WiFi networks, to provide better user experience or Quality-of-Experience (QoE). However, accurate estimation of LTE links is challenging and critical to continue providing QoE for many ...

Polarimetric Evidence of the First White Dwarf Pulsar: The Binary System AR Scorpii
The binary star AR Scorpii was recently discovered to exhibit high amplitude coherent variability across the electromagnetic spectrum (ultraviolet to radio) at two closely spaced ∼2 min periods, attributed to the spin period of a white dwarf and the beat

Pair Multiplicities and Pulsar Death [PDF]
Through a simple model of particle acceleration and pair creation above the polar caps of rotation-powered pulsars, we calculate the height of the pair-formation front (PFF) and the dominant photon emission mechanism for the pulsars in the Princeton ...

Recent H-alpha Results on Pulsar B2224+65’s Bow-Shock Nebula, the “Guitar” [PDF]
We used the 4 m Discovery Channel Telescope (DCT) at Lowell observatory in 2014 to observe the Guitar Nebula, an Hα bow-shock nebula around the high-velocity radio pulsar B2224+65.

The environment of TeV halo progenitors
Context. TeV haloes are extended sources of very-high-energy gamma rays found around some middle-aged pulsars. The emission spanning several tens of parsecs suggests an efficient confinement of the ultra-relativistic lepton pairs produced by pulsars in ...

Pulsar Electrodynamics — Pulsars and Puzzlers — [PDF]
Abstract A gedanken experiment presented here provides basic understanding of how the pulsar magnetosphere operates. We discuss current issues about the electric-field acceleration along magnetic field lines and subsequent pair creation, and also about the pulsar wind problem.

Pulsar interpretation of the lepton spectra measured by AMS-02 [PDF]
AMS-02 recently published its lepton spectra measurement. The results show that the positron fraction no longer increases above $\sim$200 GeV. The aim of this work is to investigate the possibility that the excess of positron fraction is due to pulsars ...

Born to be recycled: A comprehensive population synthesis of the Galactic millisecond pulsars
Context. Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are the oldest and fastest pulsars known to date. The first MSP to be discovered was PSR B1937+21 in 1982. To explain how these pulsars could be formed, a new hypothesis was formulated: the recycling of pulsars, i.e ...

Understanding the diffuse gamma ray emission of the milky way - from supernova remnants to dark matter [PDF]
Diffuse gamma ray emission from the Galactic center at 2-3 GeV, as well as the 12 TeV gamma ray excess in the Galactic disk, remain open for debate and represent the missing puzzles in the complete picture of the high-energy Milky Way sky.
