Pulsar Astrometry at the Microarcsecond Level
W. H. T. Vlemmings, S. Chatterjee, W. F. Brisken +12
Determination of pulsar parallaxes and proper motions addresses fundamental astrophysical questions. We have recently finished a VLBI astrometry project to determine the proper mot…
Fundamental Physics with the SKA:Strong-Field Tests of Gravity Using Pulsars and Black Holes
M. Kramer
The Square-Kilometre-Array (SKA) will be a radio telescope with a collecting area that will exceed that of existing telescopes by a factor of a hundred or so. This contribution sum…
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…
Two clocks in the PSR J0737--3039 binary system and their implications for the system's origin and evolution
D. R. Lorimer, M. Burgay, P. C. C. Freire +8
As discussed elsewhere in these proceedings, the double pulsar system is a magnificent laboratory for gravitational physics and for studying pulsar magnetospheres. Here we consider…
Observational manifestations of young neutron stars: Spin-powered pulsars
Michael Kramer
The largest number of known young neutron stars are observed as spin-powered pulsars. While the majority of those are detected at radio frequencies, an increasing number can be stu…
Giant pulses in Millisecond Pulsars
B. C. Joshi, M. Kramer, A. G. Lyne +2
Giant pulses (GPs), occasional individual pulses with an intensity 100 times the average intensity, have been detected in four pulsars todate. Their origin is not well understood,…
