Role of Reconnection in AGN Jets
Maxim Lyutikov
We discuss the possible role of reconnection in electro-magnetically dominated cores of relativistic AGN jets. We suggest that reconnection may proceed in a two-fold fashion: initi…
A search for the radio counterpart of the unidentified gamma-ray source 3EG J1410-6147
M. Doherty, S. Johnston, A. J. Green +4
We have made radio continuum, HI and X-ray observations in the direction of the unidentified EGRET source 3EG J1410-6147, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Chandr…
Recent Globular Cluster Searches with Arecibo and the Green Bank Telescope
S. M. Ransom, J. W. T. Hessels, I. H. Stairs +4
We report the discovery of seven new millisecond pulsars during 20 cm searches of 19 globular clusters using the recently upgraded Arecibo Telescope and the new Green Bank Telescop…
XMM-Newton observations of PSR B1823-13: An asymmetric synchrotron nebula around a Vela-like pulsar
Bryan Gaensler, Norbert Schulz, Vicky Kaspi +2
We present a deep observation with the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission of PSR B1823-13, a young pulsar with similar properties to the Vela pulsar. We detect two components to the X-ray…
The Massive Binary Pulsar J1740-3052
I. H. Stairs, R. N. Manchester, A. G. Lyne +4
The young pulsar J1740-3052 is in an 8-month orbit with a companion of at least 11 solar masses. We present multifrequency GBT and Parkes timing observations, and discuss implicati…
Rates of reconnection in pulsar winds
Maxim Lyutikov
Using the formulation of relativistic reconnection by Lyutikov & Uzdensky (2002) we estimate the upper possible rates of reconnection in pulsar winds using Bohm prescription for re…
