Pulsars and Their Nebulae as EGRET Sources
At the end of the EGRET mission, only 6-8 Galactic sources had been identified as young pulsars. Since then, several energetic pulsars have been discovered in EGRET error boxes along the Galactic plane, as well as several pulsar wind nebulae from which pulsations have not yet been discovered. Some of these nebulae are associated with moderately variable EGRET sources, suggesting that the γ-ray ...
متن کاملPulse profiles of millisecond pulsars and their Fourier amplitudes
Approximate analytical formulae are derived for the pulse profile produced by small hot spots on a rapidly rotating neutron star. Its Fourier amplitudes and phases are calculated. The proposed formalism takes into account gravitational bending of light, Doppler effect, anisotropy of emission, and time delays. Its accuracy is checked with exact numerical calculations.
متن کاملChandra Spectroscopy of Pulsars and their Wind Nebulae
We present preliminary results from a systematic spectral study of pulsars and their wind nebulae using the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. The superb spatial resolution of Chandra allows us to differentiate the compact object's spectrum from that of its surrounding nebulae. Specifically, for six Crab-like pulsars, we compare spectral fits of the averaged pulsar wind nebulae (PWN) emission to that o...
متن کاملTiming Measurements and Their Implications for Four Binary Millisecond Pulsars
We present timing observations of four millisecond pulsars, using data obtained over three years at the ATNF Parkes and NRAL Jodrell Bank radio telescopes. Astrometric, spin, and binary parameters are updated, and substantially improved for three pulsars, PSRs J0613−0200, J1045−4509 and J1643−1224. We have measured the time variation of the projected semi-major axis of the PSR J0437−4715 orbit ...
متن کاملNeutron Stars in X-ray Pulsars and Their Magnetic Fields
Estimates of the magnetic field of neutron stars in X-ray pulsars are obtained using the hypothesis of the equilibrium period for disk and wind accretion and also from the BATSE data on timing of X-ray pulsars using the observed maximum spin-down rate. Cyclotron lines at energies ≥ 100 keV in several Be-transient are predicted for future observations. We suggest a new method of estimating dista...
