Scatter broadening of pulsars in the direction of the Gum nebula
We have measured the scatter broadening of pulsars in the direction of the Gum nebula. For the first time, our observations show clear variations of scattering properties across the Gum nebula. The IRAS-Vela shell is shown to be a high scattering region. Our revised estimations of distances to these pulsars are consistently less by a factor of 2–3, which has very important consequences for the ...
متن کاملAngular Broadening of Nearby Pulsars
We conducted a very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) observation of 5 nearby pulsars and did not resolve the scattering disks of any of these sources. Using our upper limits on the angular diameters of these scattering disks and published values of the broadening times and proper motion velocities, we constrain the possible distributions of scattering material. The material responsible for ...
متن کاملEvolution of Black Widow Pulsars
We consider the evolution of black widow pulsars (BWPs). The large majority of these are members of globular clusters. For minimum companion masses < 0.1M ̄, adiabatic evolution and consequent mass loss under gravitational radiation appear to provide a coherent explanation of all observable properties. We suggest that the group of BWPs with minimum companion masses ∼> 0.1M ̄ are systems relaxing ...
متن کاملSpin frequency distributions of binary millisecond pulsars
Rotation-powered millisecond radio pulsars have been spun up to their present spin period by a 108 −109yr long X-ray-bright phase of accretion of matter and angular momentum in a low-to-intermediate mass binary system. Recently, the discovery of transitional pulsars that alternate cyclically between accretion and rotation-powered states on time scales of a few years or shorter, has demonstrated...
متن کاملBirth and Evolution of Isolated Radio Pulsars
We investigate the birth and evolution of Galactic isolated radio pulsars. We begin by estimating their birth space velocity distribution from proper motion measurements of Brisken et al. (2002, 2003). We find no evidence for multimodality of the distribution and favor one in which the absolute one-dimensional velocity components are exponentially distributed and with a three-dimensional mean v...
