We present results of more than three decades of timing measurements of the first known binary pulsar, PSR B1913+16. Like most other pulsars, its rotational behavior over such long time scales is significantly affected by small-scale irregularities not explicitly accounted for in a deterministic model. Nevertheless, the physically important astrometric, spin, and orbital parameters are well determined and well decoupled from the timing noise. We have determined a significant result for proper motion, $mu_{alpha} = -1.43pm0.13$, $mu_{delta}=-0.70pm0.13$ mas yr$^{-1}$. The pulsar exhibited a small timing glitch in May 2003, with ${Delta f}/f=3.7times10^{-11}$, and a smaller timing peculiarity in mid-1992. A relativistic solution for orbital parameters yields improved mass estimates for the pulsar and its companion, $m_1=1.4398pm0.0002 M_{sun}$ and $m_2=1.3886pm0.0002 M_{sun}$. The systems orbital period has been decreasing at a rate $0.997pm0.002$ times that predicted as a result of gravitational radiation damping in general relativity. As we have shown before, this result provides conclusive evidence for the existence of gravitational radiation as predicted by Einsteins theory.
We present relativistic analyses of 9257 measurements of times-of-arrival from the first binary pulsar, PSR B1913+16, acquired over the last thirty-five years. The determination of the Keplerian orbital elements plus two relativistic terms completely
We describe results derived from thirty years of observations of PSR B1913+16. Together with the Keplerian orbital parameters, measurements of the relativistic periastron advance and a combination of gravitational redshift and time dilation yield the
We report the discovery of a new binary pulsar, PSR J1829+2456, found during a mid-latitude drift-scan survey with the Arecibo telescope. Our initial timing observations show the 41-ms pulsar to be in a 28-hr, slightly eccentric, binary orbit. The ad
We report on the high precision timing analysis of the pulsar-white dwarf binary PSR J1012+5307. Using 15 years of multi-telescope data from the European Pulsar Timing Array (EPTA) network, a significant measurement of the variation of the orbital pe
We report a dramatic orbital modulation in the scintillation timescale of the relativistic binary pulsar J1141--6545 that both confirms the validity of the scintillation speed methodology and enables us to derive important physical parameters. We hav
