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 pulsarsread more

Supernova neutrino signals based on long-term axisymmetric simulations
TL;DR: In this paper, neutrino signals from core-collapse supernova (CCSN) are computed using axisymmetric CCSN simulations that cover the post-bounce phase up to

Stability and Radial Vibration Periods of the Hamada–Salpeter White Dwarf Models
John Faulkner,J. R. Gribbin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the fundamental periods for the reasonably realistic white-dwarf models of Hamada and Salpeter7 can be as low as ~1·79 to ~ 2·05 s, the actual value being somewhat dependent on the composition.

S2DFS: analysis of temporal changes of drifting subpulses
TL;DR: In this paper, a sliding two-dimensional fluctuation spectrum (S2DFS) is used for detecting and characterising the temporal changes of drifting subpulses from radio pulsars.

Cosmology, astrophysics and elementary particle physics
TL;DR: In this article, the role of neutrinos in stellar evolution, particularly in the explosion of supernovae and in the cooling of neutron stars, and the possible relationship of the net baryon number of the universe to unified models of elementary particle physics.

High Energy Emission From Active Pulsars
TL;DR: In this article, the luminosity of pulsars peaks in the X-ray to gamma-ray bands and the light curves for some of these pulsars suggest particle acceleration and radiation from a hollow surface above one magnetic pole of the star.

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.

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.
