Observation of a Rapidly Pulsating Radio Source

TLDR
In this article, the first report of a curious class of astronomical radio sources, distinguished by their rapid and extremely regular pulsations, was made by Hewish et al. They are now understood to be rapidly rotating, magnetized neutron stars, or pulsars.
Abstract
Unusual signals from pulsating radio sources have been recorded at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory The radiation seems to come from local objects within the galaxy, and may be associated with oscillations of white dwarf or neutron stars 1968 saw the first report of a curious class of astronomical radio sources, distinguished by their rapid and extremely regular pulsations Hewish et al associated them with unusually stable oscillations in compact stars They are now understood to be rapidly rotating, magnetized neutron stars, or pulsars

Magnetic fields in the milky way, derived from radio continuum observations and faraday rotation studies

TL;DR: Magnetic fields are found everywhere in our Universe as discussed by the authors and magnetic fields have been observed on the Sun either as optical streamers during solar eclipses and by using remote sensing methods.

Deep learning in astronomy: a tutorial perspective

TL;DR: The present tutorial summarizes various aspects of ML that could rightly offer appreciable information and answers to astronomical phenomena and aimed to accommodate different learning aspects ofML and deep learning (DL), including selecting, extracting, and preprocessing the input information.

P-stars in the gravitational wave era

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that core-collapsed supernovae could give rise to a P-star instead of a neutron star, which could solve the supernova explosion problem leading to successful supernova explosions with total energies up to 10−53 erg.

Tests of gravity theories with Galactic Center observations

TL;DR: An active stage of relativistic astrophysics started in 1963 since quasars were discovered, Kerr solution had been found and the first Texas Symposium on Relativistic Astrophysics was held.

Interplanetary Scintillation of Small Diameter Radio Sources

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the black-body equations to calculate the increased radiation appropriate to the observed brightness increase in the star over a 1,000 A.u. band-width at 5,400 A.U.

Energetic Particles from the Sun

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the association of solar cosmic rays with flare association, solar particle acceleration, recurrence and low energy solar particle events, and discuss the effects of solar particle particle acceleration.

Possible magnetospheric phenomena associated with neutron stars

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the importance of the early cooling by emission of neutrinos from the Urca process has been underestimated in the foregoing investigations, and the calculations of Miss Tsuruta indicate that a neutron star will rapidly cool to 3 or 4 × 106 °K, but that after 105 years its surface temperature will still be about 2 × 106°K.
