Structure of Stable Binary Neutron Star Merger Remnants: Role of Initial Spin

Wolfgang Kastaun, Riccardo Ciolfi, Andrea Endrizzi +1

We present general relativistic numerical simulations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers with different initial spin configurations. We focus on models with stars of mass 1.4 M_s…

The Braking Index of a Radio-quiet Gamma-ray Pulsar

C. J. Clark, H. J. Pletsch, J. Wu +14

We report the discovery and timing measurements of PSR J1208-6238, a young and highly magnetized gamma-ray pulsar, with a spin period of 440 ms. The pulsar was discovered in gamma-…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts During the First Advanced LIGO Observing Run and Implications for the Origin of GRB 150906B

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, IPN Collaboration +1002

We present the results of the search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with -ray bursts detected during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravi…

The Einstein@Home Gamma-ray Pulsar Survey. I. Search Methods, Sensitivity and Discovery of New Young Gamma-ray Pulsars

C. J. Clark, J. Wu, H. J. Pletsch +11

We report on the results of a recent blind search survey for gamma-ray pulsars in Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data being carried out on the distributed volunteer computing sys…

Implications of the Occurrence of Glitches in Pulsar Free Precession Candidates

D. I. Jones, G. Ashton, R. Prix

The timing properties of radio pulsars provide a unique probe of neutron star interiors. Recent observations have uncovered quasiperiodicities in the timing and pulse properties of…

On the free-precession candidate PSR B1828-11: Evidence for increasing deformation

G. Ashton, D. I. Jones, R. Prix

We observe that the periodic variations in spin-down rate and beam-width of the radio pulsar PSR B1828-11 are getting faster. In the context of a free precession model, this corres…
