Observed luminosity difference between isolated and binary MSPs
A. N. Lommen, R. A. Kipphorn, D. J. Nice +3
We perform a brief census of velocities of isolated versus binary millisecond pulsars. We find the velocities of the two populations are indistinguishable. However, the scale heigh…
The Parallax and Proper Motion of PSR J0030+0451
Andrea N. Lommen, Richard A. Kipphorn, David J. Nice +3
We report the parallax and proper motion of millisecond pulsar J0030+0451, one of thirteen known isolated millisecond pulsars in the disk of the Galaxy. We obtained more than 6 yea…
A 2.1 Solar Mass Pulsar Measured by Relativistic Orbital Decay
David J. Nice, Eric M. Splaver, Ingrid H. Stairs +4
PSR J0751+1807 is a millisecond pulsar in a circular 6 hr binary system with a helium white dwarf secondary. Through high precision pulse timing measurements with the Arecibo and E…
Arecibo Measurements of Pulsar--White Dwarf Binaries: Evidence for Heavy Neutron Stars
David J. Nice, Eric M. Splaver, Ingrid H. Stairs
We summarize constraints on neutron star masses from ongoing timing observations of pulsar-white dwarf binaries at Arecibo. The trend is toward pulsar masses larger than the canoni…
Masses, Parallax, and Relativistic Timing of the PSR J1713+0747 Binary System
Eric M. Splaver, David J. Nice, Ingrid H. Stairs +2
We report on 12 years of observations of PSR J1713+0747, a pulsar in a 68-day orbit with a white dwarf. Pulse times of arrival were measured with uncertainties as small as 200 ns.…
Heavy Neutron Stars? A Status Report on Arecibo Timing of Four Pulsar-White Dwarf Systems
David J. Nice, Eric M. Splaver, Ingrid H. Stairs
Relativistic phenomena (orbital precession, Shapiro delay, and/or orbital decay) have been measured in Arecibo timing observations of four pulsar-white dwarf binaries, leading to c…
