VLT/NACO observations of the High-Magnetic field radio pulsar PSR J1119-6127
Recent radio observations have unveiled the existence of a number of radio pulsars with spin-down derived magnetic fields in the magnetar range. However, their observational properties appears to be more similar to classical radio pulsars than to ...

Investigation of Interstellar Scintillation of the Millisecond Pulsar B1937+21 with the FAST
Pulsar scintillation serves as a valuable tool for investigating interstellar scattering screens and their properties. In this paper, we report on multiepoch interstellar scintillation from the millisecond pulsar B1937+21 (J1939+2134) using Five-hundred ...

The Benefit of Space Clocks for the Deep Space Network
Abstract Ground‐based atomic clocks have been the foundation of the Deep Space Network's (DSN's) ability to provide high‐precision tracking to deep space users for navigation and radio science since its inception in the mid‐1960s. This paper describes the development of space clocks that could aid the DSN and the solar system exploration enterprise ...

Autonomous Spacecraft Navigation Based on Pulsar Timing Information
We discuss the possibility of an autonomous navigation system for spacecraft that is based on pulsar timing data. Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that are observable as variable celestial sources of electromagnetic radiation.

Einstein@Home Searches for Gamma-Ray Pulsars in the Inner Galaxy
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has revealed a mysterious extended excess of GeV gamma-ray emission around the Galactic Center (GC), which can potentially be explained by unresolved emission from a population of pulsars, particularly millisecond ...

Atmospheric Effects on Neutron Star Parameter Constraints with NICER
We present an analysis of the effects of uncertainties in the atmosphere models on the radius, mass, and other neutron star parameter constraints for the NICER observations of rotation-powered millisecond pulsars.

Estimates of the Surface Magnetic Field Strength of Radio Pulsars
We investigate the geometry of the magnetic field of rotation-powered pulsars. A new method for calculating an angle (β) between the spin and magnetic dipole axes of a neutron star (NS) in the ejector stage is considered within the frame of the magnetic ...

Deep Space Network Radio Science and Ground‐Based Planetary Radar in the Next Decade
Abstract The Deep Space Network (DSN) has been a core operational element of NASA's crewed and robotic exploration of the Solar System since the early 1960s. The primary role of the DSN has been to acquire telemetry and navigation data, but over the years, its radiometric and radar capabilities have expanded to form a system for obtaining unique ...

Thermonuclear burst oscillations
Burst oscillations, a phenomenon observed in a significant fraction of Type I (thermonuclear) X-ray bursts, involve the development of highly asymmetric brightness patches in the burning surface layers of accreting neutron stars.
