Dark matter influence globally galactic Keplerian motions and individually, by microlensing, star's acromatic luminosities. Moreover gravity slows down time as probed by gravitational redshift. Therefore pulsar's (PSR's) periods may record,…

Precision timing of millisecond pulsars in binary systems enables observers to detect the relativistic Shapiro delay induced by space time curvature. When favourably aligned, this enables constraints to be placed on the component masses and…

Neutron stars are composed of the densest form of matter known to exist in our universe, and thus provide a unique laboratory for exploring the properties of cold matter at super-nuclear density. Measurements of the masses or radii of these…

Despite its importance to our understanding of physics at supranuclear densities, the equation of state (EoS) of matter deep within neutron stars remains poorly understood. Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are among the most useful astrophysical…

PSR B1937+21 was the first millisecond pulsar ever measured. Which has been appeared as a singular pulsar. The high-precision observation of this pulsar shows systemic long-term variation in the residual of time of arrivals. This paper…

(abridged) In this paper, we express the relativistic propagational delay of light in the space-time of a binary system (commonly known as the "Shapiro delay") as a sum of harmonics of the orbital period of the system. We do this first for…

We present two millisecond pulsar discoveries from the PALFA survey of the Galactic plane with the Arecibo telescope. PSR J1955+2527 is an isolated pulsar with a period of 4.87 ms, and PSR J1949+3106 has a period of 13.14 ms and is in a…

The measurement of the Shapiro time delay in binary pulsar systems with highly inclined orbit can be affected both by the motion of the pulsar's companion because of the finite time it takes a photon to cross the binary, and by the…
