Fast radio bursts: superpulsars, magnetars, or something else?
S. B. Popov, K. A. Postnov, M. S. Pshirkov
We briefly review main observational properties of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and discuss two most popular hypothesis for the explanation of these enigmatic intense millisecond radio…
Radio precursors to neutron star binary mergings
M. S. Pshirkov, K. A. Postnov
We discuss a possible generation of radio bursts preceding final stages of binary neutron star mergings which can be accompanied by short gamma-ray bursts. Detection of such bursts…
Quasar variability limits on cosmological density of cosmic strings
Artem Tuntsov, Maxim Pshirkov
We put robust upper limits on the average cosmological density Ω_s of cosmic strings based on the variability properties of a large homogeneous sample of SDSS quasars. We search fo…
Observational constraints on light cosmic strings from photometry and pulsar timing
M. S. Pshirkov, A. V. Tuntsov
We constrain the cosmological density of cosmic string loops using two observational signatures -- gravitational microlensing and the Kaiser-Stebbins effect. Photometry from RXTE a…
Observing gravitational wave bursts in pulsar timing measurements
M. S. Pshirkov, D. Baskaran, K. A. Postnov
We propose a novel method for observing the gravitational wave signature of super-massive black hole (SMBH) mergers. This method is based on detection of a specific type of gravita…
Limits on high-frequency gravitational wave background from its interplay with large scale magnetic fields
M. S. Pshirkov, D. Baskaran
In this work, we analyze the implications of graviton to photon conversion in the presence of large scale magnetic fields. We consider the magnetic fields associated with galaxy cl…
