    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar

    The pulsar with the most stable period, PSR J0437−4715; The first millisecond pulsar with 2 stellar mass companions, PSR J0337+1715; PSR J1841−0500, stopped pulsing for 580 days. One of only two pulsars known to have stopped pulsing for more than a few minutes. PSR B1931+24, has a cycle.

  3. Chandrasekhar's white dwarf equation - Wikipedia

    where measures the density of white dwarf, is the non-dimensional radial distance from the center and is a constant which is related to the density of the white dwarf at the center. The boundary η = η ∞ {\displaystyle \eta =\eta _{\infty }} of the equation is defined by the condition

  4. Friedmann equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedmann_equations

    The second equation says that the kinetic energy (seen from the origin) of a particle of unit mass moving with the expansion plus its (negative) gravitational potential energy (relative to the mass contained in the sphere of matter closer to the origin) is equal to a constant related to the curvature of the universe. In other words, the energy ...

  5. Chandrasekhar limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrasekhar_limit

    In 1930, Stoner derived the internal energy–density equation of state for a Fermi gas, and was then able to treat the mass–radius relationship in a fully relativistic manner, giving a limiting mass of approximately 2.19 × 10 30 kg (for μ e = 2.5). [19] Stoner went on to derive the pressure–density equation of state, which he published ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar_planet

    The pulsar was discovered in 2024 using the MeerKAT radio telescope. [63] M62H has a rotational period of 3.70 milliseconds, meaning it completes 270 rotations per second (270 Hz). [65] Its planetary companion has a minimum mass of 2.5 M J and a median mass of 2.83 M J, assuming a mass of 1.4 M ☉ for the pulsar. Its minimum density is of 11 g ...

  8. PSR J0952–0607 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0952–0607

    PSR J0952–0607 is a massive millisecond pulsar in a binary system, located between 3,200–5,700 light-years (970–1,740 pc) from Earth in the constellation Sextans. [6] It holds the record for being the most massive neutron star known as of 2022, with a mass 2.35 ± 0.17 times that of the Sun—potentially close to the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff mass upper limit for neutron stars.

  9. Binary pulsar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_pulsar

    An intermediate-mass binary pulsar (IMBP) is a pulsar-white dwarf binary system with a relatively long spin period of around 10–200 ms consisting of a white dwarf with a relatively high mass of approximately . [7] The spin periods, magnetic field strengths, and orbital eccentricities of IMBPs are significantly larger than those of low mass binary pulsars (LMBPs). [7]
