Search for Pulsed TeV Gamma-ray Emission from the Crab Pulsar

R. W. Lessard, I. H. Bond, S. M. Bradbury +23

We present the results of a search for pulsed TeV emission from the Crab pulsar using the Whipple Observatory's 10 m gamma-ray telescope. The direction of the Crab pulsar was obser…

Unpulsed UBV Optical Emission from the Crab Pulsar

A. Golden, A. Shearer, G. M. Beskin

Based on observations of the Crab pulsar using the TRIFFID high speed imaging photometer in the UBV bands using the Special Astrophysical Observatory's 6m telescope in the Russian…

Implications of the Optical Observations of Isolated Neutron Stars

Andy Shearer, Aaron Golden, Gregory Beskin

Observations of the 5 confirmed optical pulsars indicate that the peak emission scales according to the outer field strength. We show that this gives gives further confirmation tha…

Unpulsed Optical Emission from the Crab Pulsar

Aaron Golden, Andy Shearer, Gregory Beskin

Using the high speed 2-d TRIFFID photometer, we have obtained phase resolved photometry of the Crab pulsar in UBV that allows us to flux the unpulsed light curve component. Followi…

PSR B0656+14: Combined Optical, X-ray & EUV Studies

Aaron Golden, Andy Shearer, Jerry Edelstein

PSR B0656+14's high energy emission is consistent with that of combined magnetospheric and thermal (surface & polar cap) emission. Uncertainties with the radio-derived distance and…

Rayleigh scattering and laser spot elongation problems at ALFA

E. Viard, F. Delplancke, N. Hubin +2

This paper describes the qualitative effects of LGS spot elongation and Rayleigh scattering on ALFA wavefront sensor images. An analytical model of Rayleigh scattering and a numeri…

Photometry of 40 LMC Cepheids

N. R. Tanvir, A. Boyle

We present V and I_c CCD photometry for 40 LMC Cepheids at 1 to 3 epochs. This represents a significant increase in the number of LMC Cepheids with -band data, and, as we show,…

Acquisition and analysis of adaptive optics imaging polarimetry data

N. Ageorges, J. R. Walsh

The process of data taking, reduction and calibration of near-infrared imaging polarimetry data taken with the ESO Adaptive Optics System ADONIS is described. The ADONIS polarimetr…
