چکیده

–Based on the epicyclic approximation, we have simulated the motion of the young open star clusters IC 4665 and Collinder 359. The separation between the cluster centers is shown to have been minimal 7 Myr ago, 36 pc. We have established a close evolutionary connection between IC 4665 and the Scorpius-Centaurus association — the separation between the centers of these structures was ≈ 200 pc 15 Myr ago. In addition, the center of IC 4665 at this time was near two well-known regions of coronal gas: the Local Bubble and the North Polar Spur. The star HIP 86768 is shown to be one of the candidates for a binary (in the past) with the pulsar PSR B1929+10. At the model radial velocity of the pulsar V r = 2 ± 50 km s −1 , a close encounter of this pair occurs in the vicinity of IC 4665 at a time of −1.1 Myr. At the same time, using currently available data for the pulsar B1929+10 at its model radial velocity V r = 200 ± 50 km s −1 , we show that the hypothesis of Hoogerwerf et al. (2001) about the breakup of the ζOph—B1929+10 binary in the vicinity of Upper Scorpius (US) about 0.9 Myr ago is more plausible.

Clusters ASCC 21 as a Probable Birthplace of the Neutron Star Geminga

–We analyze the encounters of the neutron star (pulsar) Geminga with open star clusters in the OB association OriOB1a through the integration of epicyclic orbits into the past by taking into account the errors in the data. The open cluster ASCC21 is shown to be the most probable birthplace of either a single progenitor star for the Geminga pulsar or a binary progenitor system that subsequently ...

Proper Motion confirms the optical identification of the nearby pulsar PSR 1929 + 10 1

We report on the proper motion measurement of the proposed optical counterpart of the X-ray/radio pulsar PSR 1929+10. Using images obtained with the HST/STIS (average epoch 2001.73) we computed a yearly displacement of +97±1 mas yr in RA and +46±1 mas yr in Dec since the epoch (1994.52) of the original HST/FOC detection. Both the magnitude and direction of the optical proper motion components a...

Measurement of Orbital Decay in the Double Neutron Star Binary PSR B2127+11C

We report the direct measurement of orbital period decay in the double neutron star pulsar system PSR B2127+11C in the globular cluster M15 at the rate of (−3.95± 0.13)× 10, consistent with the prediction of general relativity at the ∼ 3% level. We find the pulsar mass to be mp = (1.358 ± 0.010)M⊙ and the companion mass mc = (1.354 ± 0.010)M⊙. We also report long-term pulse timing results for t...

HST proper motion confirms the optical detection of PSR B 1929 + 10

We have measured the proper motion of the candidate optical counterpart of the old, nearby pulsar PSR B1929+10, using a set of HST/STIS images collected in 2001, 7.2 years after the epoch of the original FOC detection (Pavlov et al. 1996). The yearly displacement, µ = 107.3 ± 1 mas yr −1 along a position angle of 64.6 • ± 0.6 • , is fully consistent with the most recent VLBA radio measurement. ...
