X-ray and $\gamma$-ray Studies of the Millisecond Pulsar and Possible X-ray Binary/Radio Pulsar Transition Object PSR J1723-2837 [PDF]
We present X-ray observations of the "redback" eclipsing radio millisecond pulsar and candidate radio pulsar/X-ray binary transition object PSR J1723-2837.

On the soft emission mechanism in X-ray pulsars
We propose a mechanism responsible for the soft emission in X-ray pulsars. We discuss the origin of the soft emission for isolated X-ray pulsars as well as for soft gamma-ray repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars.

Exploring the Extra Component in the Gamma-ray Emission of the New Redback Candidate 3FGL J2039.6-5618 [PDF]
A redback system is a binary system composed of a pulsar and a main sequence star. The inverse Compton (IC) scattering between the stellar soft photons and the relativistic pulsar wind will generate orbital-modulating GeV photons.

THE DUST-SCATTERING X-RAY RINGS OF THE ANOMALOUS X-RAY PULSAR 1E 1547.0–5408 [PDF]
On 2009 January 22 numerous strong bursts were detected from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0–5408. Swift/XRT and XMM-Newton/EPIC observations carried out in the following two weeks led to the discovery of three X-ray rings centered on this source ...

EVOLUTION OF THE X-RAY PROFILE OF THE CRAB PULSAR [PDF]
ABSTRACT Using the archival data from the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, we study the evolution of the Crab pulsar’s X-ray profile in a time span of 11 years. The X-ray profiles, as characterized by a few parameters, changed slightly, but with high statistical significance in these years: the separation of the two peaks increased with a ...

A new nearby pulsar wind nebula overlapping the RX J0852.0-4622 supernova remnant [PDF]
Energetic pulsars can be embedded in a nebula of relativistic leptons which is powered by the dissipation of the rotational energy of the pulsar.

X-Ray Studies of the Pulsar PSR J1420–6048 and Its TeV Pulsar Wind Nebula in the Kookaburra Region
We present a detailed analysis of broadband X-ray observations of the pulsar PSR J1420−6048 and its wind nebula (PWN) in the Kookaburra region with Chandra, XMM-Newton, and NuSTAR.

Discovery of a prominent cyclotron absorption feature from the transient X-ray pulsar X0331+53
A remarkable absorption feature at 28.5 keV, attributable to electron cyclotron resonance, has been discovered in the 1.9-60-keV X-ray spectrum of the recurrent transient X-ray pulsar X0331 + 53.

Discovery of Radio Pulsations from the X-Ray Pulsar J0205+6449 in Supernova Remnant 3C 58 with the Green Bank Telescope [PDF]
We report the discovery with the 100 m Green Bank Telescope of 65 ms radio pulsations from the X-ray pulsar J0205+6449 at the center of supernova remnant 3C 58, making this possibly the youngest radio pulsar known. From our observations at frequencies of
