Time-domain radio astronomy utilizes a harmonic sum algorithm as part of the Fourier domain periodicity search, this type of search is used to discover single pulsars. The harmonic sum algorithm is also used as part of the Fourier domain…

The braking index, $n$, of a pulsar is a measure of its angular momentum loss and the value it takes corresponds to different spin-down mechanisms. For a pulsar spinning down due to gravitational wave emission from the principal mass…
