We have investigated the X-ray and $\gamma$-ray properties of the redback millisecond pulsar PSR J1723-2837 with XMM-Newton, Chandra and Fermi. We have discovered the X-ray orbital modulation of this binary system with the minimum that…
We report on detection of the double pulsar system J0737-3039 in the far-UV with the ACS/SBC detector aboard HST. We measured the energy flux F = 4.5+/-1.0e-17 erg cm-2s-1 in the 1250-1550 AA band, which corresponds to the…
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the nearby millisecond pulsar PSR J0437--4715, combining Hubble Space Telescope (HST) far-ultraviolet, ROSAT soft X-ray, and XMM-Newton X-ray data, to model its broadband emission and…
We present X-ray observations of the "redback" eclipsing radio millisecond pulsar and candidate radio pulsar/X-ray binary transition object PSR J1723-2837. The X-ray emission from the system is predominantly non-thermal and exhibits…
We report the discovery of a 38.5 ms X-ray pulsar in observations of the soft gamma-ray source IGR J18490-0000 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). PSR J1849-0001 is spinning down rapidly with period derivative 1.42E-14 s/s,…
We discuss the effects of particle acceleration at the bow shocks expected in the binary pulsar system J0737-3039, due to the wind from pulsar A interacting with both the interstellar medium (ISM), and with the magnetosphere of pulsar B. In…
The radio-quiet pulsar PSR J2021+4026 is mostly known because it is the only rotation-powered pulsar that shows variability in its {\gamma}-ray emission. Using XMM-Newton archival data, we first confirmed that its flux is steady in the…
General relativity predicts that the spin axes of the pulsars in the double-pulsar system (PSR J0737-3039A/B) will precess rapidly, in general leading to a change in the observed pulse profiles. We have observed this system over a one-year…
We detected X-ray emission from the 50-kyr-old pulsar J1809-1917 and resolved its pulsar wind nebula (PWN) with Chandra. The pulsar spectrum fits PL+BB model with the photon index of 1.2 and the BB temperature of 2 MK for n_{H}=0.7\times…
We have detected significant X-ray emission from the direction of the young radio pulsar PSR J1105-6107 using the ASCA Observatory. The 11 sigma detection includes 460 background-subtracted source counts derived using data from all four…
We present the first X-ray observations of three recently discovered millisecond pulsars (MSPs) with interesting characteristics: PSR J0337+1715, PSR J0636+5129, and PSR J0645+5158. PSR J0337+1715 is a fast-spinning, bright, and so-far…
We have investigated the eclipse of the 23-ms pulsar J0737-3039A by its 2.8-s companion PSR J0737-3039B in the recently discovered double pulsar system using data taken with the Green Bank Telescope at 820 MHz. We find that the pulsed flux…
X-ray emission from many rotation-powered millisecond pulsars (MSPs) is observed to be of predominantly thermal nature. In PSR J0437--4715, the nearest MSP known, an additional faint power-law tail is observed above 2.5 keV, commonly…
We present XMM-Newton observations of the radio pulsar PSR J1119-6127, which has an inferred age of 1,700 yr and surface dipole magnetic field strength of 4.1x10^13 G. We report the first detection of pulsed X-ray emission from PSR…
PSR J1833-1034 and its associated Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) has been investigated in depth through X-ray observations ranging from 0.1 to 200 keV. The low energy X-ray data from Chandra reveal a complex morphology that is characterised by a…
The ROSAT source RX J0630.8-2834 was suggested by positional coincidence to be the X-ray counterpart of the old field pulsar PSR B0628-28. This association, however, was regarded to be unlikely based on the computed energetics of the…
We report the discovery of 0.59 s X-ray pulsations from the low-mass X-ray binary, 5.57 hr dipping and eclipsing ADC source 2A 1822-371. Pulse arrival time analysis indicates a circular orbit with e < 0.03 (95% confidence) and an asini for…
The general properties of the non-thermal non-pulsed X-ray emission of rotation powered pulsars are investigated in the context of a pulsar wind nebula model. An examination of the observed X-ray emission from a sample of 23 pulsars from…
PSR~J2021+4026 showed a sudden decrease in the gamma-ray emission at the glitch that occurred around 2011, October 16, and a relaxation of the flux to the pre-glitch state at around 2014 December. We report X-ray analysis results of the…
Pulsars are detected over the whole electromagnetic spectrum, from radio wavelengths up to very high energies, in the GeV-TeV range. Whereas the radio emission site for young pulsars is well constrained to occur at altitudes about several…
