The binary system HESS J0632+057 was recently detected by {Fermi} to possess orbital modulated GeV emission. In this paper, we study the possibility that the compact companion of HESS J0632+057 is a pulsar. Under such a presumption, we…
PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 is a binary system in which a 48-ms pulsar orbits around a Be star in a high eccentric orbit with a long orbital period of about 3.4 yr. It is special for having asymmetric two-peak profiles in both the X-ray and the…
