We present a model for pulsar radio eclipses in some binary systems, and test this model for PSRs B1957+20 and J2051-0827. We suggest that in these binaries the companion stars are degenerate dwarfs with strong surface magnetic fields. The…

Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are powerful probes of globular clusters (GCs), tracing stellar evolution, cluster dynamics, and the local gravitational potential. We investigate the MSP population in GC Omega Centauri. We perform Fourier-domain…

PSR J0955$-$6150 is a member of a class of eccentric MSP+He WD systems (eMSPs), whose binary evolution is poorly understood and believed to be different to that of traditional MSP+He WD systems. Measuring the masses of the stars in this…

XSS J12270-4859 is an X-ray binary associated with the Fermi LAT gamma-ray source 1FGL J1227.9-4852. In 2012 December, this source underwent a transition where the X-ray and optical luminosity dropped and the spectral signatures of an…

Measurements of pulsar flux densities are of great importance for understanding the pulsar emission mechanism and for predictions of pulsar survey yields and the pulsar population at large. Typically these flux densities are determined from…

We identified a highly-polarized, steep-spectrum radio source in a deep image with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope at 888 MHz. After considering and rejecting a stellar origin for this source, we…

Observations with the Parkes radio telescope of the eclipsing millisecond binary pulsar PSR J1748$-$2446A, which is in the globular cluster Terzan 5, are presented. These include the first observations of this pulsar in the 3\,GHz frequency…
