An increased estimate of the merger rate of double neutron stars from observations of a highly relativistic system

M. Burgay, N. D'Amico, A. Possenti +10

The merger of close binary systems containing two neutron stars should produce a burst of gravitational waves, as predicted by the theory of general relativity. A reliable estimate…

Searching for sub-millisecond pulsars from highly polarized radio sources

J. L. Han, R. N. Manchester, A. G. Lyne +1

Pulsars are among the most highly polarized sources in the universe. The NVSS has catalogued 2 million radio sources with linear polarization measurements, from which we have selec…

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…

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,…

Pulsar Birthrate from Parkes Multi-beam Survey

N. Vranesevic, R. N. Manchester, G. B. Hobbs +8

We report on calculations of the pulsar birthrate based on the results of the Parkes multibeam survey. From the observed sample of more than 800 pulsars, we compute the pulsar curr…

Long-Term Timing of 374 Pulsars

G. Hobbs, A. Lyne, M. Kramer

We have analysed the arrival times for 374 pulsars that have been observed for more than six years using the 76-m Lovell telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory. Here we present a qu…
