The peculiar cosmic object known as 47 Tuc W (denoted by arrow in the X-ray image) is a double star system consisting of a normal star and a neutron star that makes a complete rotation every 2.35 ...
What happens to the spin of rapidly rotating neutron stars called millisecond pulsars when reaching the end of their mass-accretion phase? The formation of millisecond pulsars is the result of stellar ...
In the paper ‘On the origin of the recently discovered ultra-rapid pulsar’ (Curr. Sci. 51; 1096-99; 1982) Venkatraman Radhakrishnan and I argued that the then recently discovered ‘solitary’ ...
