Binary pulsars: evolution and fundamental physics
In the standard theory of pulsar spin-up, a neutron star (NS) in a binary system accretes matter from its companion star; this serves to transfer angular momentum to the NS, increasing the spin frequency of the pulsar. Measurement of the orbital parameters and system geometry, and in particular the...
