A millisecond pulsar having an ellipticity, that is an asymmetric mass distribution around its spin-axis, could emit continuous gravitational waves, which have not been detected so far. An indirect way to infer such waves is to estimate the…

PSR J0537-6910, also known as the Big Glitcher, is the most prolific glitching pulsar known, and its spin-induced pulsations are only detectable in X-ray. We present results from analysis of 2.7 years of NICER timing observations, from 2017…

Pulsar glitches, i.e. the sudden spin-ups of pulsars, have been detected for most pulsars that we known. The mechanism giving rise to this kind of phenomenon is uncertain, although a large data set has been built. In the framework of…
