Radio Pulsars - An Observer's Perspective
D. R. Lorimer
Pulsar astronomy is currently enjoying one of the most productive phases in its history. In this review, I outline some of the basic observational aspects and summarise some of the…
Neutron Star Birth Rates
D. R. Lorimer
A crucial test any proposed evolutionary scenario must pass is can the birth rate of the sources we see be sustained by the proposed progenitor population? In this review, I invest…
Millisecond Pulsars in 47 Tucanae
Paulo C. Freire, Fernando Camilo, Duncan R. Lorimer +2
Recent observations of the globular cluster 47 Tuc, made with the Parkes telescope at a wavelength of 20 cm, have resulted in the discovery of nine new millisecond pulsars, all in…
IAU 177 - A week in review
D. R. Lorimer
A look back at the recent IAU meeting "Pulsar Astronomy 2000 and beyond" held in Bonn.
Timing of the young pulsar J1907+0918
K. Xilouris, D. R. Lorimer
We have extensively searched for periodic signals in the area of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1900+14, at 430 and 1410 MHz with the Arecibo telescope. Our observations did not r…
Puzzling Pulsars and Supernova Remnants
D. R. Lorimer, R. Ramachandran
The fact that the majority of the youngest radio pulsars are surrounded by expanding supernova remnants is strong evidence that neutron stars are produced in the supernovae of mass…
