LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
The goal of the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is to detect and study gravitational waves of astrophysical origin. Direct detection of gravitational wa…
Superfluid turbulence and pulsar glitch statistics
A. Melatos, C. Peralta
Experimental evidence is reviewed for the existence of superfluid turbulence in a differentially rotating, spherical shell at high Reynolds numbers ($\Rey\gsim 10^3$), such as the…
Avalanche dynamics of radio pulsar glitches
A. Melatos, C. Peralta, J. S. B. Wyithe
We test statistically the hypothesis that radio pulsar glitches result from an avalanche process, in which angular momentum is transferred erratically from the flywheel-like superf…
Pulsed X-ray Emission from Pulsar A in the Double Pulsar System J0737-3039
S. Chatterjee, B. M. Gaensler, A. Melatos +2
The double pulsar system J0737-3039 is not only a test bed for General Relativity and theories of gravity, but also provides a unique laboratory for probing the relativistic winds…
