PSR J1856+0245: Arecibo Discovery of a Young, Energetic Pulsar Coincident with the TeV Gamma-ray Source HESS J1857+026
J. W. T. Hessels, D. J. Nice, B. M. Gaensler +21
We present the discovery of the Vela-like radio pulsar J1856+0245 in the Arecibo PALFA survey. PSR J1856+0245 has a spin period of 81ms, a characteristic age of 21kyr, and a spin-d…
An Eccentric Binary Millisecond Pulsar in the Galactic Plane
D. J. Champion, S. M. Ransom, P. Lazarus +28
Binary pulsar systems are superb probes of stellar and binary evolution and the physics of extreme environments. In a survey with the Arecibo telescope, we have found PSR J1903+032…
The GBT350 Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane for Radio Pulsars and Transients
J. W. T. Hessels, S. M. Ransom, V. M. Kaspi +3
Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) and Pulsar Spigot at 350MHz, we have surveyed the Northern Galactic Plane for pulsars and radio transients. This survey covers roughly 1000 squ…
PSR J1453+1902 and the radio luminosities of solitary versus binary millisecond pulsars
D. R. Lorimer, M. A. McLaughlin, D. J. Champion +1
We present 3 yr of timing observations for PSR J1453+1902, a 5.79-ms pulsar discovered during a 430-MHz drift-scan survey with the Arecibo telescope. Our observations show that PSR…
Arecibo and the ALFA Pulsar Survey
J. van Leeuwen, J. M. Cordes, D. R. Lorimer +34
The recently started Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) pulsar survey aims to find ~1000 new pulsars. Due to its high time and frequency resolution the survey is especially sensitive…
The young, highly relativistic binary pulsar J1906+0746
D. R. Lorimer, I. H. Stairs, P. C. C. Freire +33
We report the discovery of PSR J1906+0746, a young 144-ms pulsar in a highly relativistic 3.98-hr orbit with an eccentricity of 0.085 and expected gravitational wave coalescence ti…
