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.
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.

A body force is simply a type of force, and so it has the same dimensions as force, [M][L][T] −2. However, it is often convenient to talk about a body force in terms of either the force per unit volume or the force per unit mass. If the force per unit volume is of interest, it is referred to as the force density throughout the system.
For each central density, you numerically solve the mass and pressure equations until the pressure goes to zero, which is the outside of the star. Each solution gives a corresponding mass and radius for that central density. Mass-radius curves determine what the maximum mass is for a given equation of state.
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 ...
The Crab Pulsar was the first pulsar for which the spin-down limit was broken using several months of data of the LIGO observatory. Most pulsars do not rotate at constant rotation frequency, but can be observed to slow down at a very slow rate (3.7 × 10 −10 Hz/s in case of the Crab). This spin-down can be explained as a loss of rotation ...
Conventional mass is defined as follows: "For a mass at 20 °C, 'conventional mass' is the mass of a reference standard of density 8,000 kg/m 3 which it balances in air with a density of 1.2 kg/m 3." The effect is a small one, 150 ppm for stainless steel mass standards, but the appropriate corrections are made during the manufacture of all ...
