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

Optimal filters for the construction of the ensemble pulsar time

TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm of the ensemble pulsar time based on the optimal Wiener filtration method has been constructed, which allows the separation of the contributions to the post-fit pulsar timing residuals of the atomic clock and the pulsar itself.

History of Astroparticle Physics and its Components

TL;DR: An outline of the historical events that led to the formation of contemporary astroparticle physics is given and a brief survey of the most important fields that have played a role in the development of astroparticles physics as the authors know it today is given.

Realfast: Real-Time, Commensal Fast Transient Surveys with the Very Large Array.

TL;DR: Realfast as discussed by the authors is a commensal, fast transient search system at the Jansky Very Large Array (JVL) that uses a novel architecture to distribute fast-sampled interferometric data to a 32-node, 64-GPU cluster.

Modelling double neutron stars: radio and gravitational waves

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of the double neutron star (DNS) population, accounting for radio survey selection effects, was performed, and a best-fit model that is in broad agreement with the observed Galactic DNS population was proposed.

Gamma-Ray Pulsars

G. Kanbach
TL;DR: In this paper, a radio telescope at 81.5 MHz was used to study the properties of these cosmic plasma clouds, and a high-speed recorder was fitted with a highspeed recorder to record the intensity of celestial sources passing over the fixed field of radio receivers.

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.
