Reconciling optical and radio observations of the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J1640+2224

Sarah J. Vigeland, Adam T. Deller, David L. Kaplan +3

Previous optical and radio observations of the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J1640+2224 have come to inconsistent conclusions about the identity of its companion, with some observa…

A Model of the Pulsating Extremely Low-Mass White Dwarf Precursor WASP 0247-25B

Alina G. Istrate, Gilles Fontaine, Christian Heuser

We present an analysis of the evolutionary and pulsation properties of the extremely low-mass white dwarf precursor (B) component of the double-lined eclipsing system WASP 0247-25.…

A multi-wavelength study of nearby millisecond pulsar PSR J14001431: improved astrometry & an optical detection of its cool white dwarf companion

Joseph K. Swiggum, David L. Kaplan, Maura A. McLaughlin +16

In 2012, five high school students involved in the Pulsar Search Collaboratory discovered the millisecond pulsar PSR J14001431 and initial timing parameters were published in Ro…

Formation of Double Neutron Star Systems

T. M. Tauris, M. Kramer, P. C. C. Freire +11

Double neutron star (DNS) systems represent extreme physical objects and the endpoint of an exotic journey of stellar evolution and binary interactions. Large numbers of DNS system…

Novel modelling of ultra-compact X-ray binary evolution - stable mass transfer from white dwarfs to neutron stars

Rahul Sengar, Thomas M. Tauris, Norbert Langer +1

Tight binaries of helium white dwarfs (He WDs) orbiting millisecond pulsars (MSPs) will eventually "merge" due to gravitational damping of the orbit. The outcome has been predicted…
