A Population of Fast Radio Bursts at Cosmological Distances
- D. Thornton, B. Stappers, +17 authors W. van Straten
- Physics, Medicine
- Science
- 5 July 2013
Mysterious Radio Bursts It has been uncertain whether single, short, and bright bursts of radio emission that have been observed are celestial or terrestrial in origin. Thornton et al. (p. 53; see… Expand
THE SECOND FERMI LARGE AREA TELESCOPE CATALOG OF GAMMA-RAY PULSARS
This catalog summarizes 117 high-confidence > 0.1 GeV gamma-ray pulsar detections using three years of data acquired by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi satellite. Half are neutron stars… Expand
A repeating fast radio burst
- L. Spitler, P. Scholz, +21 authors W. Zhu
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 2 March 2016
Fast radio bursts are millisecond-duration astronomical radio pulses of unknown physical origin that appear to come from extragalactic distances. Previous follow-up observations have failed to find… Expand
The First Fermi Large Area Telescope Catalog of Gamma-ray Pulsars
- A. Abdo, M. Ackermann, +214 authors M. Ziegler
- Physics
- 1 March 2010
The dramatic increase in the number of known gamma-ray pulsars since the launch of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST) offers the first opportunity to study a population of these… Expand
A study of 315 glitches in the rotation of 102 pulsars
- C. Espinoza, A. Lyne, B. Stappers, M. Kramer
- Physics
- 8 February 2011
The rotation of more than 700 pulsars has been monitored using the 76-m Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank. Here we report on a new search for glitches in the observations, revealing 128 new glitches… Expand
A strong magnetic field around the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Galaxy
- R. Eatough, H. Falcke, +20 authors N. Wex
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 14 August 2013
Earth’s nearest candidate supermassive black hole lies at the centre of the Milky Way. Its electromagnetic emission is thought to be powered by radiatively inefficient accretion of gas from its… Expand
Gamma-Ray Emission from the Shell of Supernova Remnant W44 Revealed by the Fermi LAT
- A. Abdo, M. Ackermann, +178 authors M. Ziegler
- Physics, Medicine
- Science
- 26 February 2010
Supernova Remnant Observations The sources of the cosmic rays that bombard Earth have been mysterious, but more recent explanations invoke high-energy acceleration of protons by the remnants of… Expand
The repeating Fast Radio Burst FRB 121102: Multi-wavelength observations and additional bursts
- P. Scholz, L. Spitler, +21 authors S. Tendulkar
- Physics
- 29 March 2016
We report on radio and X-ray observations of the only known repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) source, FRB 121102. We have detected six additional radio bursts from this source: five with the Green… Expand
The host galaxy of a fast radio burst
- E. Keane, S. Johnston, +38 authors C. Bassa
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 25 February 2016
In recent years, millisecond-duration radio signals originating in distant galaxies appear to have been discovered in the so-called fast radio bursts. These signals are dispersed according to a… Expand
45 years of rotation of the Crab pulsar
- A. Lyne, C. Jordan, F. Graham-Smith, C. Espinoza, B. Stappers, Patrick Weltrvrede
- Physics
- 3 October 2014
The 30-Hz rotation rate of the Crab pulsar has been monitored at Jodrell Bank Observatory since 1984 and by other observatories before then. Since 1968, the rotation rate has decreased by about 0.5… Expand
