Exploring PSR J0901-4046 as an ultra-slowly rotating neutron star versus a white dwarf

Banibrata Mukhopadhyay, Nirupam Roy, Zenia Zuraiq +2

The source PSR J0901-4046 shows a very long rotational period, of s. In fact, its long period suggests that it could be a white dwarf. We examine the properties of…

Exploring the origin of slow-rotating pulsars: Emission from STARS simulated white dwarfs

Zenia Zuraiq, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

An increasing number of slow-rotating pulsars and long-period transients have been observed in recent years. The periods of these sources can be significantly longer than typical p…

Study of pulse jitter characteristics of PSR J1744-1134: Towards high precision pulsar timing with InPTA

Jibin Jose, Manoneeta Chakraborty, Neelam Dhanda Batra +15

Variations in the shapes of individual pulses introduce a broadband noise component in pulsar times of arrival beyond what is expected from radiometer noise, referred to as the jit…

Super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs by the evolution of magnetized main-sequence stars: New mass-limits from STARS simulation

Zenia Zuraiq, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay, Achal Kumar +4

We explore the time evolution of the magnetized main-sequence stars (MSs) to magnetized non-rotating white dwarfs (WDs) with a series of models, capturing modified Hertzsprung-Russ…

Profile Reconstruction from Temporally Stable Emission Components for Timing PSR J1713+0747

Shaswata Chowdhury, M. A. Krishnakumar, Sharika Dhakappa +26

The assumption of long-term pulse-profile stability underpins high-precision pulsar timing and forms the basis of pulsar timing array experiments. However, several millisecond puls…

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array Data Release 2: III. Search for a Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background

Hemanga Tahbildar, Kunjal Vara, Mayuresh Surnis +28

We present the first independent search for an isotropic stochastic gravitational wave background in the second data release of the Indian Pulsar Timing Array, comprising of 27 mil…

Anisotropic hybrid stars: Interplay of superconductivity and magnetic field leading to gravitational waves

Zenia Zuraiq, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

Neutron stars, at their cores, are highly dense and, thus, are expected to have a number of exotic processes. This includes a possible phase transition to deconfined quark matter a…

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array Data Release 2: II. Customised Single-Pulsar Noise Analysis and Noise Budget

K. Nobleson, Churchil Dwivedi, Shantanu Desai +33

We present the results of customised single-pulsar noise analysis of 27 millisecond pulsars from the second data release of the Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA-DR2). We model var…

Revisiting wideband pulsar timing measurements

Abhimanyu Susobhanan, Avinash Kumar Paladi, Réka Desmecht +28

In the wideband paradigm of pulsar timing, the time of arrival of a pulsar pulse is measured simultaneously with the corresponding dispersion measure from a frequency-resolved inte…

Effects of Coronal Mass Ejection on PSR J1022+1001 and Possible Mode Change of PSR J2145-0750 in the InPTA DR2

Shaswata Chowdhury, M. A. Krishnakumar, Manjari Bagchi +27

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA) has recently published its second data release (DR2), comprising the timing analysis of seven years of data on 27 millisecond pulsars (MSPs),…

Dark, deep, deconfining: Phase transitions in neutron stars as powerful probes of hidden sectors

Aryaman Bhutani, Nirmal Raj, Zenia Zuraiq

The interiors of neutron stars enjoy ideal conditions for the conversion of hadrons to a strange quark phase, theorized to be the stablest form of matter. Though numerous astrophys…

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array Data Release 2: I. Dataset and Timing Analysis

Prerna Rana, Pratik Tarafdar, Nobleson K +44

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA) employs unique features of the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) to monitor dozens of the International Pulsar Timing Array (I…

Strongly interacting matter in extreme magnetic fields

Prabal Adhikari, Martin Ammon, Sidney S. Avancini +58

Magnetic fields are ubiquitous across different physical systems of current interest; from the early Universe, compact astrophysical objects and heavy-ion collisions to condensed m…

Simulating super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs

Zenia Zuraiq, Achal Kumar, Alexander J. Hackett +3

Over the last few decades, there has been considerable interest in the violation of the sacred "Chandrasekhar" mass limit of white dwarfs (WDs). Peculiar over-luminous type Ia supe…

Massive neutron stars as mass gap candidates: Exploring equation of state and magnetic field

Zenia Zuraiq, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay, Fridolin Weber

The densities in the cores of the neutron stars (NSs) can reach several times that of the nuclear saturation density. The exact nature of matter at these densities is still virtual…
