Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of a pulsar in a binary system
R. A. Hulse,J. H. Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a pulsar with a pulsation period that varies systematically between 0.058967 and 0.59045 sec over a cycle of 0.3230 d was detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulsar distances and the galactic distribution of free electrons
J. H. Taylor,James M. Cordes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a quantitative model for the Galactic free electron distribution, which abandons the assumption of axisymmetry and explicitly incorporates spiral arms; their shapes and locations are derived from existing radio and optical observations of H II regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The galactic population of pulsars
TL;DR: Afin d'etablir des conclusions statistiques sur la population globale des pulsars dans la Galaxie, on analyse un echantillon de 316 pulsars detectes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of a pulsar in a binary system
TL;DR: Hulse et al. as mentioned in this paper conducted a high-sensitivity search for previously unknown pulsars with the 1000-ft telescope at the Arecibo Observatory, where the sky is scanned at the rate of about 20 beam areas (-0.5 square degrees) per hour; for each beam area, the computer applies to the data more than 6 different matched digital filters and thereby seeks periodicities in the range 0.03 < P < 3.9s.
Journal ArticleDOI
The coalescence rate of double neutron star systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the coalescence rate of close binaries with two neutron stars (NS) and discussed the prospects for the detection of NS-NS inspiral events by ground-based gravitational-wave observatories, such as LIGO.
