TL;DR: Pulsar J0348+0432 is only the second neutron star with a precisely determined mass of 2 M☉
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-mass white dwarfs need friends: five new double-degenerate close binary stars
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have discovered five detached close binary stars out of seven white dwarfs chosen for their low mass (<0.45 Msun) and measured the orbital period and radial velocity amplitude of four of their discoveries.
Journal ArticleDOI
ULTRACAM: an ultrafast, triple - beam CCD camera for high-speed astrophysics
V. S. Dhillon,Tom Marsh,M. J. Stevenson,David Atkinson,P. Kerry,P. T. Peacocke,A. J. A. Vick,Steven Beard,Derek Ives,David Lunney,S. A. McLay,Chris Tierney,J. Kelly,S. P. Littlefair,Rhana B. Nicholson,R. Pashley,E. T. Harlaftis,Kieran O'Brien +17 more
TL;DR: The ULTRACAM as discussed by the authors is a portable, high-speed imaging photometer designed to study faint astronomical objects at high temporal resolutions, which employs two dichroic beamsplitters and three frame transfer CCD cameras to provide three-colour optical imaging at frame rates of up to 500 Hz.

TL;DR: The LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) as mentioned in this paper is a radio interferometer operating in the lowest 4 octaves of the ionospheric "radio window": 10-240 MHz, that will greatly facilitate observing pulsars at low radio frequencies.
