Optical Observations of PSR J0205+6449 - the next optical pulsar?
P. Moran, R. P. Mignani, S. Collins +3
PSR J0205+6449 is a young ({\approx} 5400 years), Crab-like pulsar detected in radio and at X and γ-ray energies and has the third largest spin-down flux among known rotation power…
The Galway Astronomical Stokes Polarimeter: An All-Stokes Optical Polarimeter with Ultra-High Time Resolution
Patrick Collins, Gillian Kyne, David Lara +3
Many astronomical objects emit polarised light, which can give information both about their source mechanisms, and about (scattering) geometry in their source regions. To date (mos…
Optical Polarimetry of the Inner Crab Nebula and Pulsar
Paul Moran, Andy Shearer, Roberto Mignani +4
Time-resolved polarisation measurements of pulsars offer an unique insight into the geometry of their emission regions. Such measure\ ments provide observational constraints on the…
INTEGRAL/IBIS and optical observations of the Crab nebula/pulsar polarisation
Paul Moran, Andy Shearer, Christian Gouiffes +1
Previous INTEGRAL/IBIS observations have shown that the gamma-ray radiation of the Crab Nebula is highly polarised and remarkably aligned along the axis of rotation of the pulsar (…
Deep optical observations of the gamma-ray pulsar PSR J0007+7303 in the CTA 1 supernova remnant
R. P. Mignani, A. de Luca, N. Rea +5
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) discovered the time signature of a radio-silent pulsar coincident with RX J0007.0+7302, a plerion-like X-ray source at the centre of the CTA 1…
