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…

Timing analyses of gamma-ray pulsars in the Fermi Large Area Telescope data set can provide sensitive probes of many astrophysical processes, including timing noise in young pulsars, orbital period variations in redback binaries, and the…
