PSR J1856+0245: Arecibo Discovery of a Young, Energetic Pulsar Coincident with the TeV Gamma-ray Source HESS J1857+026
J. W. T. Hessels, D. J. Nice, B. M. Gaensler +21
We present the discovery of the Vela-like radio pulsar J1856+0245 in the Arecibo PALFA survey. PSR J1856+0245 has a spin period of 81ms, a characteristic age of 21kyr, and a spin-d…
An Eccentric Binary Millisecond Pulsar in the Galactic Plane
D. J. Champion, S. M. Ransom, P. Lazarus +28
Binary pulsar systems are superb probes of stellar and binary evolution and the physics of extreme environments. In a survey with the Arecibo telescope, we have found PSR J1903+032…
Arecibo and the ALFA Pulsar Survey
J. van Leeuwen, J. M. Cordes, D. R. Lorimer +34
The recently started Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) pulsar survey aims to find ~1000 new pulsars. Due to its high time and frequency resolution the survey is especially sensitive…
The young, highly relativistic binary pulsar J1906+0746
D. R. Lorimer, I. H. Stairs, P. C. C. Freire +33
We report the discovery of PSR J1906+0746, a young 144-ms pulsar in a highly relativistic 3.98-hr orbit with an eccentricity of 0.085 and expected gravitational wave coalescence ti…
Arecibo Pulsar Survey Using ALFA. I. Survey Strategy and First Discoveries
J. M. Cordes, P. C. C. Freire, D. R. Lorimer +21
We report results from the initial stage of a long-term pulsar survey of the Galactic plane using the Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA), a seven-beam receiver operating at 1.4 GHz w…
