PSR J0952-0607: The Fastest and Heaviest Known Galactic Neutron Star
Roger W. Romani, D. Kandel, Alexei V. Filippenko +2
We describe Keck-telescope spectrophotometry and imaging of the companion of the ``black widow" pulsar PSR~J09520607, the fastest known spinning neutron star (NS) in the disk of…
On the vanishing orbital X-ray variability of the eclipsing binary millisecond pulsar 47 Tuc W
Pavan R. Hebbar, Craig O. Heinke, D. Kandel +2
Redback millisecond pulsars (MSPs) typically show pronounced orbital variability in their X-ray emission due to our changing view of the intrabinary shock (IBS) between the pulsar…
Discovery of a Gamma-ray Black Widow Pulsar by GPU-accelerated Einstein@Home
L. Nieder, C. J. Clark, D. Kandel +39
We report the discovery of 1.97 ms period gamma-ray pulsations from the 75 minute orbital-period binary pulsar now named PSR J1653-0158. The associated Fermi Large Area Telescope g…
Velocity Centroids Anisotropy and the Signature of different MHD Modes in the Turbulent ISM
D. Hernández-Padilla, A. Esquivel, A. Lazarian +3
Magnetic turbulence is anisotropic as the directions of motion are constrained by the magnetic field. Such anisotropy can be observed in velocity centroids obtained from spectrosco…
Statistical properties of galactic CMB foregrounds: dust and synchrotron
D. Kandel, A. Lazarian, D. Pogosyan
Recent Planck observations have revealed some of the important statistical properties of synchrotron and dust polarisation, namely, the to mode power and temperature- (T…
Heated Poles on the Companion of Redback PSR J23390533
D. Kandel, Roger W. Romani, Alexei V. Filippenko +2
We analyze photometry and spectra of the "redback" millisecond pulsar binary J23390533. These observations include new measurements from Keck and GROND, as well as archival meas…
