Gravitational wave detection using pulsars: status of the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array project

G. B. Hobbs, M. Bailes, N. D. R. Bhat +17

The first direct detection of gravitational waves may be made through observations of pulsars. The principal aim of pulsar timing array projects being carried out worldwide is to d…

Extremely high precision VLBI astrometry of PSR J0437-4715 and implications for theories of gravity

A. T. Deller, J. P. W. Verbiest, S. J. Tingay +1

Using the recently upgraded Long Baseline Array, we have measured the trigonometric parallax of PSR J0437-4715 to better than 1% precision, the most precise pulsar distance determi…

PSR J1410-6132: A young, energetic pulsar associated with EGRET source 3EG J1410-6147

J. T. O'Brien, S. Johnston, M. Kramer +9

We present the discovery of PSR J1410-6132, a 50-ms pulsar found during a high-frequency survey of the Galactic plane, using a 7-beam 6.3-GHz receiver on the 64-m Parkes radio tele…

Populating the Galaxy with pulsars I: stellar & binary evolution

Paul Kiel, Jarrod Hurley, Matthew Bailes +1

The computation of theoretical pulsar populations has been a major component of pulsar studies since the 1970s. However, the majority of pulsar population synthesis has only regard…

Gravitational-radiation losses from the pulsar-white-dwarf binary PSR J1141-6545

N. D. Ramesh Bhat, Matthew Bailes, Joris P. W. Verbiest

Pulsars in close binary orbit around another neutron star or a massive white dwarf make ideal laboratories for testing the predictions of gravitational radiation and self-gravitati…
