Pulsar Discoveries from the TRAPUM UHF Survey of Fermi-LAT Sources

Tinn Thongmeearkom, Colin J. Clark, Rene P. Breton +25

The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) provides advantages for radio pulsar searches by enabling efficient target selection. We can confidently point radio telescopes to the position…

Optical Study of TRAPUM Pulsars and Modelling of the Redbacks: PSR J10364353 and PSR J18036707

A. Phosrisom, R. P. Breton, C. J. Clark +12

The Transients and Pulsars with MeerKAT (TRAPUM) project discovered eight binary millisecond pulsars in its first shallow \textit{L}-band survey of unidentified \textit{Fermi} -…

Discovery of the variable optical counterpart of the redback pulsar PSR J2055+1545

Marco Turchetta, Bidisha Sen, Jordan A. Simpson +5

We present the discovery of the variable optical counterpart to PSR J2055+1545, a redback millisecond pulsar, and the first radial velocity curve of its companion star. The multi-b…

Analysis of optical spectroscopy and photometry of the type I X-ray bursting system UW CrB

M. R. Kennedy, P. Callanan, P. M. Garnavich +19

UW Coronae Borealis (UW CrB) is a low mass X-ray binary that shows both Type 1 X-ray and optical bursts, which typically last for 20 s. The system has a binary period of close to 2…

The Orbit and Companion of PSR J1622-0315: Variable Asymmetry and a Massive Neutron Star

Bidisha Sen, Manuel Linares, Mark R. Kennedy +6

The companion to PSR J1622-0315, one of the most compact known redback millisecond pulsars, shows extremely low irradiation despite its short orbital period. We model this system t…

Mass estimates from optical modelling of the new TRAPUM redback PSR J1910-5320

O. G. Dodge, R. P. Breton, C. J. Clark +17

Spider pulsars continue to provide promising candidates for neutron star mass measurements. Here we present the discovery of PSR~J19105320, a new millisecond pulsar discovered i…

A model for redistributing heat over the surface of irradiated spider companions

G. Voisin, M. R. Kennedy, R. P. Breton +2

Spider pulsars are binary systems containing an energetic millisecond pulsar that intensely irradiates a closely orbiting low-mass companion. Modelling their companion's optical li…
