Spectral evolution of gamma-ray burst pulses assumed to arise from emission of fireballs is explored. It is found that, due to the curvature effect, the integrated flux and peak energy are well related by a power law in the decaying phase…

Pulsars are often lauded for their (relative) rotational and radio emission stability over long time scales. However, long-term observing programmes are identifying an increasing number of pulsars that deviate from this preconceived notion.…
