The Intrabinary Shock and Companion Star of Redback Pulsar J2215+5135
PSR J2215+5135 (J2215) is a “redback” spider pulsar, where the intrabinary shock (IBS) wraps around the pulsar rather than the stellar-mass companion. Spider orbital light curves are modulated, dominated by their binary companion thermal emission in the ...

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 Diffuse Hard X-Ray Emission from the Vicinity of PSR J1648-4611 with Suzaku
We observed the pulsar PSR J1648-4611 with Suzaku. Two X-ray sources, Suzaku J1648-4610 (Src A) and Suzaku J1648-4615 (Src B), were found in the field of view. Src A is coincident with the pulsar PSR J1648-4611, which was also detected by the Fermi Gamma-

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 ...

Diagnosing the Particle Transport Mechanism in the Pulsar Halo via X-Ray Observations
Pulsar halos (also termed “TeV halos”) are a new class of γ -ray sources in the Galaxy, which manifest as extended γ -ray emission around middle-aged pulsars, as discovered around the Geminga pulsar, the Monogem pulsar, and PSR J0622+3749 by the High ...

Deep optical imaging of the gamma-ray pulsar J1048-5832 with the VLT
(abridged) PSR J1048-5832 is a young Vela-like pulsar that was recently detected in gamma-rays with Fermi, and also in X-rays with Chandra and XMM-Newton. It powers a compact PWN visible in X-rays.

Optical pulsations from a transitional millisecond pulsar [PDF]
Weakly magnetic, millisecond spinning neutron stars attain their very fast rotation through a 1E8-1E9 yr long phase during which they undergo disk-accretion of matter from a low mass companion star. They can be detected as accretion-powered millisecond X-

Previous observations of the middle-aged γ -ray, X-ray, and radio pulsar B1055–52 indicated some peculiarities, such as a suspected changing of the X-ray flux and spectral parameters, a large excess of the alleged thermal component of the UV spectrum ...

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 ...

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.
