DataStax also offers DataStax Enterprise (DSE), an on-premises database built on Apache Cassandra, and Astra Streaming, a messaging and event streaming cloud service based on Apache Pulsar. As of June 2022, the company has roughly 800 customers distributed in over 50 countries.
The International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA) is a multi-institutional, multi-telescope collaboration [1] comprising the European Pulsar Timing Array (EPTA), the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav), the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array (PPTA) in Australia, and the Indian Pulsar Timing Array Project (InPTA [2] [3]).
The key property of a pulsar timing array is that the signal from a stochastic GW background will be correlated across the sightlines of pulsar pairs, while that from the other noise processes will not. [9] In the literature, this spatial correlation curve is called the Hellings-Downs curve or the overlap reduction function. [10]
PSR J1748−2446ad is the fastest-spinning pulsar known, at 716 Hz (times per second), [2] or 42,960 revolutions per minute.This pulsar was discovered by Jason W. T. Hessels of McGill University on November 10, 2004, and confirmed on January 8, 2005.
When a pulsar's spin period slows down sufficiently, the radio pulsar mechanism is believed to turn off (the so-called "death line"). This turn-off seems to take place after about 10–100 million years, which means of all the neutron stars born in the 13.6-billion-year age of the universe, around 99% no longer pulsate. [43]
Out of all the mashed potato mistakes you can make, adding too much liquid to your spuds is sure to ruin your day. After all, nobody wants to take a scoop of soupy mashed potatoes! But what if you ...
X-ray pulsar-based navigation and timing (XNAV) or simply pulsar navigation is a navigation technique whereby the periodic X-ray signals emitted from pulsars are used to determine the location of a vehicle, such as a spacecraft in deep space. A vehicle using XNAV would compare received X-ray signals with a database of known pulsar frequencies ...
Jim Hines' October 1968 Olympic gold medal run was the fastest recorded fully electronic 100 metre race up to that date, at 9.95 seconds. [2] Track and Field News has compiled an unofficial list of automatically timed records starting with the 1964 Olympics and Bob Hayes' gold medal performance there. Those marks are included in the progression.
