An increased estimate of the merger rate of double neutron stars from observations of a highly relativistic system
M. Burgay, N. D'Amico, A. Possenti +10
The merger of close binary systems containing two neutron stars should produce a burst of gravitational waves, as predicted by the theory of general relativity. A reliable estimate…
The Cosmic Coalescence Rates for Double Neutron Star Binaries
V. Kalogera, C. Kim, D. R. Lorimer +10
This manuscript is an updated version of Kalogera et al. (2004) published in ApJ Letters to correct our calculation of the Galactic DNS in-spiral rate. The details of the original…
Two Radio Pulsars with Magnetar Fields
M. A. McLaughlin, V. M. Kaspi, I. H. Stairs +9
PSRs J1847-0130 and J1718-37184 have inferred surface dipole magnetic fields greater than those of any other known pulsars and well above the ``quantum critical field'' above which…
The Brightest Pulses in the Universe: Multifrequency Observations of the Crab Pulsar's Giant Pulses
J. M. Cordes, N. D. R. Bhat, T. H. Hankins +2
We analyze the Crab pulsar at ten frequencies from 0.43 to 8.8 GHz using data obtained at the Arecibo Observatory. Giant pulses occur only in the main and interpulse components man…
Searches for Fast Radio Transients
J. M. Cordes, M. A. McLaughlin
We discuss optimal detection of fast radio transients from astrophysical objects while taking into account the effects of propagation through intervening ionized media, including d…
