Detection of pulsed X-ray emission from the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232
We report the detection of pulsed X-ray emission from the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232 in a 100 ks ROSAT HRI observation. The lightcurve deviates from a flat distribution at a ∼ 4.8σ level, showing a sharp main pulse with a duty cycle of ∼ 0.15 (350μs), compatible with smearing due to the scatter in the ROSAT clock calibration. The intrinsic width can be smaller than 100μs. There is...
متن کاملChandra and Rxte Studies of the X-ray/γ-ray Millisecond Pulsar Psr J0218+4232
We report on high-resolution spatial and timing observations of the millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232 performed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) and the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). With these observations we were able to study a) the possible spatial extent at X-ray energies of the DC source coincident with PSR J0218+4232 in detail (CXO), b) the relative phasing between the X-ra...
متن کاملBinary millisecond pulsar discovery via gamma-ray pulsations.
Millisecond pulsars, old neutron stars spun up by accreting matter from a companion star, can reach high rotation rates of hundreds of revolutions per second. Until now, all such "recycled" rotation-powered pulsars have been detected by their spin-modulated radio emission. In a computing-intensive blind search of gamma-ray data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (with partial constraints from ...
متن کاملNuSTAR Observations of the State Transition of Millisecond Pulsar Binary PSR
We report NuSTAR observations of the millisecond pulsar–low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) transition system PSR J1023+0038 from 2013 June and October, before and after the formation of an accretion disk around the neutron star. Between June 10 and 12, a few days to two weeks before the radio disappearance of the pulsar, the 3–79 keV X-ray spectrum was well fit by a simple power law with a photon ind...
متن کاملProperties and Evolution of the Redback Millisecond Pulsar Binary Psr J2129–0429
PSR J2129−0429 is a “redback” eclipsing millisecond pulsar binary with an unusually long 15.2 hr orbit. It was discovered by the Green Bank Telescope in a targeted search of unidentified Fermi gamma-ray sources. The pulsar companion is optically bright (mean mR=16.6mag), allowing us to construct the longest baseline photometric data set available for such a system. We present 10 years of arch...
