The implications of a companion enhanced wind on millisecond pulsar production
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
The most frequently seen binary companions to millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are helium white dwarfs (He WDs). The standard rejuvenation mechanism, in which a low- to intermediate-mass…
Formation of redbacks via accretion induced collapse
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
We examine the growing class of binary millisecond pulsars known as redbacks. In these systems the pulsar's companion has a mass between 0.1 and about 0.5 solar masses in an orbita…
The Nature of Millisecond Pulsars with Helium White Dwarf Companions
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
We examine the growing data set of binary millisecond pulsars that are thought to have a helium white dwarf companion. These systems are believed to form when a low- to intermediat…
