The spin-orbit alignment hypothesis in millisecond pulsars
Alexandra Lorange, Jérôme Pétri, Mattéo Sautron +1
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are spun up during their accretion phase in a binary system. The exchange of angular momentum between the accretion disk and the star tends to align the…
Born to be recycled: a comprehensive population synthesis of the Galactic millisecond pulsars
Mattéo Sautron, Jérôme Pétri, Dipanjan Mitra +2
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are the oldest but fastest pulsars known to date. In the 1980s, to explain how these pulsars could be formed, a new hypothesis was formulated: the recycl…
The Galactic population of magnetars : a simulation-based inference study
Mattéo Sautron, Alexander Eli McEwen, George Younes +3
Population synthesis modeling of the observed dynamical and physical properties of a population is a highly effective method for constraining the underlying birth parameters and ev…
The Galactic population of canonical pulsars II
Mattéo Sautron, Jérôme Pétri, Dipanjan Mitra +1
Pulsars are highly magnetized rotating neutron stars, emitting in a broad electromagnetic energy range. Reproducing the observed pulsars population refines our understanding of the…
