متن کاملCurious properties of the recycled pulsars and the potential of high precision timing
Binary and Millisecond pulsars have a great deal to teach us about stellar evolution and are invaluable tools for tests of relativistic theories of gravity. Our understanding of these objects has been transformed by large-scale surveys that have uncovered a great deal of new objects, exquisitely timed by ever-improving instrumentation. Here we argue that there exists a fundamental relation betw...
متن کاملPulsar Timing Observations and Tests of General Relativity in Double-neutron-star Binaries
We describe the techniques used in pulsar timing observations, and show how these observations may be applied to tests of strong-field general relativity for doubleneutron-star binary systems. We describe the tests of GR resulting from the PSRs B1913+16 and B1534+12 systems. For the latter pulsar, 5 ”Post-Keplerian” timing parameters are measurable, including the orbital period derivative and t...
متن کاملMulti-telescope timing of PSR J1518+4904
Context. PSR J1518+4904 is one of only 9 known double neutron star systems. These systems are highly valuable for measuring the masses of neutron stars, measuring the effects of gravity, and testing gravitational theories. Aims. We determine an improved timing solution for a mildly relativistic double neutron star system, combining data from multiple telescopes. We set better constraints on rel...
متن کاملStudies of the Relativistic Binary Pulsar PSR B 1534 + 12 : I . Timing Analysis
We have continued our long term study of the double-neutron-star binary pulsar PSR B1534+12, using new instrumentation to make very high precision measurements at the Arecibo Observatory. We have significantly improved our solution for the astrometric, spin, and orbital parameters of the system, as well – 2 – as for the five " post-Keplerian " orbital parameters that can be used to test grav-it...
