We report the discovery during the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey of PSR J1756-2251, a 28.5 ms pulsar in a relativistic binary system. Subsequent timing observations showed the pulsar to have an orbital period of 7.67 hrs and an eccentricity of 0.18. They also revealed a significant advance of periastron, 2.585+/-0.002 deg./yr. Assuming this is entirely due to general relativity implies a total system mass (pulsar plus companion) of 2.574+/-0.003 solar mass. This mass and the significant orbital eccentricity suggest that this is a double neutron star system. Measurement of the gravitational redshift, gamma, and an evaluation of the Shapiro delay shape, s, indicate a low companion mass of <1.25 solar mass. The expected coalescence time due to emission of gravitational waves is only ~1.7 Gyr substantially less than a Hubble time. We note an apparent correlation between spin period and eccentricity for normally evolving double neutron star systems.
The pulsar PSR J1756$-$2251 resides in a relativistic double neutron star (DNS) binary system with a 7.67-hr orbit. We have conducted long-term precision timing on more than 9 years of data acquired from five telescopes, measuring five post-Keplerian
PSR J1811-1736 (P=104 ms) is an old (~1.89 Gyrs) binary pulsar (P_orb=18.8 d) in a highly eccentric orbit (e=0.828) with an unidentified companion. Interestingly enough, the pulsar timing solution yields an estimated companion mass 0.93 M_{odot}<M_C<
We report the discovery and initial follow-up of a double neutron star (DNS) system, PSR J1946$+$2052, with the Arecibo L-Band Feed Array pulsar (PALFA) survey. PSR J1946$+$2052 is a 17-ms pulsar in a 1.88-hour, eccentric ($e , =, 0.06$) orbit with a
We present upper limits on the X-ray emission for three neutron stars. For PSR J1840$-$1419, with a characteristic age of 16.5 Myr, we calculate a blackbody temperature upper limit (at 99% confidence) of $kT_{mathrm{bb}}^{infty}<24^{+17}_{-10}$ eV, m
To understand the nature of supernovae and neutron star (NS) formation, as well as binary stellar evolution and their interactions, it is important to probe the distribution of NS masses. Until now, all double NS (DNS) systems have been measured to h
