Using the Five-hundred Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), astronomers from China and Australia have discovered five new pulsars, two of which turned out to have ultra-short spin periods. The finding was reported in a research ...
Using the MeerKAT radio telescope, an international team of astronomers has observed a Galactic globular cluster known as NGC 6522. As a result, they have discovered two new isolated pulsars in this cluster. The finding is ...
Using the MeerKAT telescope, an international team of astronomers has serendipitously discovered a new pulsar. The newfound object, designated PSR J1710−3452, turns out to be an extremely intermittent radio pulsar. The ...
Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), a team of Chinese astronomers has detected a new millisecond pulsar in the globular cluster Messier 53. The finding is reported in a research paper published ...
Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), astronomers from Columbia University and the University of California Berkeley have detected a new binary millisecond pulsar. The newly found pulsar, designated PSR J0212+5321, belongs ...
By analyzing the data from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), astronomers from the University of Bologna in Italy and elsewhere have found that the millisecond pulsar PSR J1835−3259B has a young white dwarf companion. The ...
Researchers using MeerKAT in South Africa have discovered nine millisecond pulsars, most of them in rare and sometimes unusual binary systems, as the first result of a targeted survey. An international team with significant ...

Indian astronomers have performed long-term radio observations of a "black widow" millisecond pulsar known as PSR J1544+4937. Results of the observational campaign, published November 25 on the arXiv pre-print server, shed ...
European astronomers have conducted X-ray and optical observations of a transitional millisecond pulsar known as PSR J1023+0038. Results of the observational campaign, published November 23 on arXiv.org, yield important insights ...
A dense, collapsed star spinning 707 times per second—making it one of the fastest spinning neutron stars in the Milky Way galaxy—has shredded and consumed nearly the entire mass of its stellar companion and, in the process, ...
