The aligned pulsars whose rotation axes and magnetic dipole axes are parallel should be positively charged. The total charge of pulsars is calculated after considering the electromagnetic field in and out the star under a specific…
Usually, positions of spacecraft on interplanetary or deep space missions are determined by radar tracking from ground stations, a method by which uncertainty increases with distance from Earth. As an alternative, a spacecraft equipped with…
The dynamical response to a pulsed magnetic field has been studied here both using Monte Carlo simulation and by solving numerically the meanfield dynamical equation of motion for the Ising model. The ratio R_p of the response magnetisation…
Timing observations from the Parkes 64-m radio telescope for 165 pulsars between 1990 and 2011 have been searched for period glitches. A total of 107 glitches were identified in 36 pulsars, where 61 have previously been reported and 46 are…
Variation in the angle $\alpha$ between a pulsar's rotational and magnetic axes would change the torque and spin-down rate. We show that sudden increases in $\alpha$, coincident with glitches, could be responsible for the persistent…
The magnetospheric locations of pulsar radio emission region are not well known. The actual form of the so--called radius--to--frequency mapping should be reflected in the aberration--retardation (A/R) effects that shift and/or delay the…
The presence of a companion wind in neutron star binary systems can form a contact discontinuity well within the pulsar's light cylinder, effectively creating a waveguide that confines the pulsar's electromagnetic fields and significantly…
Radio observations from normal pulsars indicate that the coherent radio emission is excited by curvature radiation from charge bunches. In this review we provide a systematic description of the various observational constraints on the radio…
We have used the Nanshan 25-m Radio Telescope at Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory to obtain timing observations of 87 pulsars from 2002 July to 2014 March. Using the "Cholesky" timing analysis method we have determined positions and proper…
Time-correlated variations in the pulse profiles of radio pulsars provide insights into changes in their magnetospheres. For a small number of pulsars (~20), these variations have been shown to correlate with spin-down rate. Many of these…
Magnetized rotating neutron stars, or pulsars, are a possible end product of massive star evolution. Their relativistic wind successively interacts with the supernova ejecta of their defunct progenitor, then with the circumstellar medium of…
In their catalogue of pulsars' radio spectra, Swainston et al. (2022, PASA, 39, e056) distinguish between five different forms of these spectra: those that can be fitted with (i) a simple power law, (ii) a broken power law, (iii) a…
Aims. We explore frequency-dependent changes in pulsar radio emission by analyzing their profile widths and emission heights, assessing whether the simple radius-to-frequency mapping (RFM) or the fan beam model can describe the data.…
Pulsars are stars that emit electromagnetic radiation in well-defined time intervals. The frequency of such pulses decays with time as is quantified by the {\it braking index} ($n$). In the canonical model $n = 3$ for all pulsars, but…
Recently, Parthsarathy et al. analysed long-term timing observations of 85 young radio pulsars. They found that 11 objects have braking indices ranging $\sim 10-100$, far from the classical value $n=3$. They also noted a mild correlation…
Spider millisecond pulsars are, along with some eclipsing post-common envelope systems and cataclysmic variables, part of an expanding category of compact binaries with low-mass companions for which puzzling timing anomalies have been…
We study the influence of the propagation effects on the mean profiles of radio pulsars using the Kravtsov-Orlov method of the wave propagation in the inhomogeneous media. This approach allows us firstly to include into consideration the…
Shortly after the discovery of PSR J1906+0746, some hints of profile variations were already interpreted as first signs of relativistic spin-precession occuring. Using observations from the Nan\c{c}ay, Arecibo and Green Bank Radio…
We make statistics about the number distribution of normal radio pulsars according to the pulsar spin period. And find the physical meaning of the traditional statistical method about this problem is very limited. According to the…
