Age constraints in the double pulsar system J0737-3039
D. R. Lorimer, P. C. C. Freire, I. H. Stairs +10
We investigate the age constraints that can be placed on the double pulsar system using models for the spin-down of the first-born 22.7-ms pulsar A and the 2.77-s pulsar B with cha…
The Formation of the Double Pulsar PSR J0737-3039A/B
I. H. Stairs, S. E. Thorsett, R. J. Dewey +2
Recent timing observations of the double pulsar J0737-3039A/B have shown that its transverse velocity is extremely low, only 10 km/s, and nearly in the Plane of the Galaxy. With th…
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…
Studies of the Relativistic Binary Pulsar PSR B1534+12. II. Origin and Evolution
S. E. Thorsett, R. J. Dewey, I. H. Stairs
We have recently measured the angle between the spin and orbital angular momenta of PSR B1534+12 to be either 25+/-4 deg or 155+/-4 deg. This misalignment was almost certainly caus…
