Dynamics of PSR J0045-7319/B-star Binary and Neutron Star Formation

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Recent timing observations have revealed the presence of orbital precession due to spin-orbit coupling and rapid orbital decay due to dynamical tidal interaction in the PSR J0045-7319/B-star binary system. They can be used to put concrete constraints on the age, initial spin and velocity of the neutron star.
