The Highly Relativistic Binary Pulsar PSR J0737-3039A: Discovery and Implications
M. Burgay, N. D'Amico, A. Possenti +10
PSR J0737-3039A is a millisecond pulsar with a spin period of 22.7 ms included in a double-neutron star system with an orbital period of 2.4 hrs. Its companion has also been detect…
The double pulsar -- A new testbed for relativistic gravity
M. Kramer, A. G. Lyne, M. Burgay +9
The first ever double pulsar, discovered by our team a few months ago, consists of two pulsars, one with period of 22 ms and the other with a period of 2.7 s. This binary system wi…
New Binary and Millisecond Pulsars from Arecibo Drift-Scan Searches
M. A. McLaughlin, D. R. Lorimer, D. J. Champion +6
We discuss four recycled pulsars found in Arecibo drift-scan searches. PSR J1944+0907 has a spin period of 5.2 ms and is isolated. The 5.8-ms pulsar J1453+19 may have a low-mass co…
Gamma-Ray Pulsars: Modeling and Searches
M. A. McLaughlin, J. M. Cordes
Using a likelihood analysis (updated since McLaughlin & Cordes 2000) and EGRET detections, upper limits and diffuse background measurements, we find a best-fit luminosity law for t…
Two Radio Pulsars with Magnetar Fields
M. A. McLaughlin, V. M. Kaspi, I. H. Stairs +9
PSRs J1847-0130 and J1718-37184 have inferred surface dipole magnetic fields greater than those of any other known pulsars and well above the ``quantum critical field'' above which…
New Pulsars Discovered in Arecibo Drift-Scan Searches
M. A. McLaughlin, D. R. Lorimer, D. J. Champion +6
We report on new pulsars discovered in Arecibo drift-scan data. Processing of 2200 square degrees of data has resulted in the detection of 41 known and 12 new pulsars. New pulsars…
