A short review on the pulsar magnetic inclination angles

Biao-Peng Li, Zhi-Fu Gao

The inclination angle between magnetic and rotation axes of pulsars is an important parameter in pulsar physics. The changes in the inclination angle of a pulsar would lead to…

Evolution of LMXBs under Different Magnetic Braking Prescriptions

Zhu-Ling Deng, Xiang-Dong Li, Zhi-Fu Gao +1

Magnetic braking (MB) likely plays a vital role in the evolution of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). However, it is still uncertain about the physics of MB, and there are various p…

Explaining high-braking indice of magnetars SGR 0501+4516 and 1E 2259+586 using the double magnetic-dipole model

Fangzhou Yan, Zhifu Gao, Wenshen Yang +1

In this paper, we attribute high braking indices of two magnetars SGR 05014516 and 1E 2259586 to the decrease in their inclination angles using the double magnetic-dipo…

On the formation of PSR J1640+2224: a neutron star born massive?

Zhu-Ling Deng, Zhi-Fu Gao, Xiang-Dong Li +1

PSR J1640+2224 is a binary millisecond pulsar (BMSP) with a white dwarf (WD) companion. Recent observations indicate that the WD is very likely to be a CO WD.…

A strange star scenario for the formation of isolated millisecond pulsars

Long Jiang, Na Wang, Wen-Cong Chen +3

According to the recycling model, neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries were spun up to millisecond pulsars (MSPs), which indicates that all MSPs in the Galactic plane ought to…
