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.

Radio efficiency of pulsars [PDF]
We investigate radio emission efficiency $\xi$ of pulsars and report a near linear inverse correlation between $\xi$ and the spindown power $\dot E$, as well as a near linear correlation between $\xi$ and pulsar age $\tau$. This is a consequence of very weak, if any, dependences of radio luminosity $L$ on pulsar period $P$ and period derivative $\dot{P}

The Third Fermi Large Area Telescope Catalog of Gamma-Ray Pulsars
We present 294 pulsars found in GeV data from the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Another 33 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) discovered in deep radio searches of LAT sources will likely reveal pulsations once phase-connected

Gravity Tests with Radio Pulsars
The discovery of the first binary pulsar in 1974 has opened up a completely new field of experimental gravity. In numerous important ways, pulsars have taken precision gravity tests quantitatively and qualitatively beyond the weak-field slow-motion ...

Magnetic fields of radio pulsars [PDF]
We used the magneto-dipole radiation mechanism for the braking of radio pulsars to calculate the new values of magnetic inductions at the surfaces of neutron stars. For this aim we estimated the angles ? between the rotation axis and the magnetic moment of the neutron star for 376 radio pulsars using three different methods. It was shown that there was

Almost 50 years after radio pulsars were discovered in 1967, our understanding of these objects remains incomplete. On the one hand, within a few years it became clear that neutron star rotation gives rise to the extremely stable sequence of radio pulses, that the kinetic energy of rotation provides the reservoir of energy, and that electromagnetic ...

Timing of young radio pulsars – I. Timing noise, periodic modulation, and proper motion [PDF]
The smooth spin-down of young pulsars is perturbed by two non-deterministic phenomenon, glitches, and timing noise. Although the timing noise provides insights into nuclear and plasma physics at extreme densities, it acts as a barrier to high-precision

Radio pulsars with expected gamma radiation and gamma pulsars as pulsating radio emitters [PDF]
Pulsars play a crucial astrophysical role as the highly energetic compact radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray sources. Our previous works show that the radio pulsars found as the pulsing gamma sources by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the board of the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope have high values of magnetic field near the light cylinder, two-three ...
