The understanding of pulsar radio emission demands a close look at all regions of the huge parameter space present for pulsar observations. In this review we concentrate on the space given by the range of observed pulse periods, spanning…
I survey results about, and recent applications of, Salem numbers.
The thesis focuses on different aspects of radio pulsars: on the one hand it describes research on the pulsar emission mechanism (nulling, drifting subpulses, single-pulse polarisation and their mutual interaction). On the other it gives an…
The sheer number of new gamma-ray pulsar discoveries by the Fermi Large Area Telescope since 2008, combined with the quality of new multi-frequency data, has caused a revolution in the field of high-energy rotation-powered pulsars. These…
The author reports his recollections of what transpired. These may or may not prove consistent with the contributions to be published in the proceedings. Corrections are welcome.
In this review, I reflect on four decades of my experience in linking astronomy research and education by supervising variable-star research projects by undergraduates, and by outstanding senior high school students. I describe the…
We review the main properties, demographics and applications of binary and millisecond radio pulsars. Our knowledge of these exciting objects has greatly increased in recent years, mainly due to successful surveys which have brought the…
This contribution to the proceedings of "A New Golden Age for Radio Astronomy" is simply intended to give some of the highlights from pulsar observations with LOFAR at the time of its official opening: June 12th, 2010. These observations…
We review recent results obtained from observations of Anomalous X-ray Pulsars at different wavelengths (X-rays, Optical, IR and Radio) with particular emphasis on results obtained by BeppoSAX. Proposed models for AXPs are briefly presented…
We have embarked on a survey for pulsars and fast transients using the 13-beam Multibeam receiver on the Parkes radio telescope. Installation of a digital backend allows us to record 400 MHz of bandwidth for each beam, split into 1024…
High time-resolution observations of pulsars were carried out at 35 MHz, using the Gauribidanur Radio Telescope (India), to study the spectra of intrinsic pulse-to-pulse fluctuations. Our sample consists of a few bright pulsars, each of…
We review some of the recent advances in nonlinear pulsation theory, but also insist on some of the major extant shortcomings.
Recycled pulsars are mainly characterized by their spin periods, B-fields and masses. All these quantities are affected by previous interactions with a companion star in a binary system. Therefore, we can use these quantities as fossil…
In the next 30 years, a new generation of space and ground-based telescopes will permit to obtain multi-frequency observations of faint sources and, for the first time in human history, to achieve a deep, almost synoptical monitoring of the…
We present a comparison between the average radio pulse profiles of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in the field and in globular clusters. Our sample consists of 20 field MSPs and 25 cluster MSPs for which observations exist at 400-600 MHz.
I summarize the first four decades of solar neutrino research and suggest what may be possible to learn with extragalactic neutrinos and with solar neutrinos in the next decade.
As a 30th anniversary tribute, I discuss the present and possible future impact of the physics and the physicists of BFKL.
By 2000 there were only 10 established Galactic pulsar-supernova remnant associations. Two years later there are 16 such associations known. I discuss the work leading to this substantial increase. In particular I summarize an ongoing…
The authors discuss potential remarkable achievements for pulsar science with the FAST (pulsar monitoring, timing and searching, as well as others related), and expect a FAST era of pulsar science to come.
