Novel Search Techniques to Detect Pulsar Black Hole Binaries in Radio Observations
(2022-02-21)
Pulsars are rapidly rotating highly magnetised neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic radiation from their magnetic poles. These compact objects are unique as they are one of the densest forms of matter known in ...
Long-term timing of pulsars in globular clusters
(2017-12-20)
Pulsars are fast rotating, magnetized neutron stars that result from the supernova explosion of massive stars. Thanks to their coherent radiation, emitted in the form of collimated beams from the two magnetic poles, pulsars ...
Innovative Pulsar Searching Techniques: or Fantastic Pulsars and How to Find Them
(2018-06-14)
Pulsars are rapidly rotating, highly magnetised neutron stars which emit beams of electromagnetic radiation from their magnetic poles, most commonly in the radio spectrum. These massive and extremely compact objects have ...
Binary star population synthesis: Progenitors of gravitational wave driven mergers
(2018-06-13)
The vast majority of all massive stars are born in binaries. The binarity of a star may influence its life drastically via a large variety of interactions with its companion star. Several astrophysical events, like the ...
Millisecond pulsars in the era of sensitive telescopes
(2023-01-09)
Pulsars are highly magnetised rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic radiation. Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are a class of recycled pulsars that rotate with exceptionally small spin periods. They ...
Gravity Tests with Pulsars Using New-Generation Radio Telescopes
(2023-05-23)
Pulsar timing is a powerful tool for studying a wide range of questions in fundamental physics, including the equation of state (EOS) of super-dense matter, tests of general relativity (GR) and alternative theories of ...
