Pulsar Timing
The motivation for radio pulsar timing and its basic principles are reviewed. Present and future radio timing techniques and hardware are summarised and compared. The array of present timing programmes and their scientific goals are collated and described. Recent results and future prospects are discussed, with emphasis on multi-wavelength techniques where appropriate. Timing of radio pulsars a...
متن کاملFitting Pulsar Wind Tori. Ii. Error Analysis and Applications
We have applied the torus fitting procedure described in Ng & Romani (2004) to PWNe observations in the Chandra data archive. This study provides quantitative measurement of the PWN geometry and we characterize the uncertainties in the fits, with statistical errors coming from the fit uncertainties and systematic errors estimated by varying the assumed fitting model. The symmetry axis Ψ of the ...
متن کاملPulsar Timing and Spacetime Curvature
We analyze the effect of weak field gravitational waves on the timing of pulsars, with particular attention to gauge invariance, that is, to the effects that are independent of the choice of coordinates. We find: (i) the Doppler shift cannot be separated into gauge invariant gravitational wave and kinetic contributions; (ii) a gauge invariant separation can be made for the time derivative of th...
متن کاملRobust Designs For Fitting Linear
This paper considers linear models with misspeciication of the form f(x) = E(yjx) = P p j=1 j g j (x) + h(x), where h(x) is an unknown function. We assume that the true response function f comes from a reproducing kernel Hilbert space and the estimates of the parameters j are obtained by the standard least squares method. A sharp upper bound for the mean squared error is found in terms of the n...
متن کاملTiming of emergency IUD fitting.
We wish to thank Dr Davies for raising an issue we were not able to address in our original letter due to space limitations. The issue with emergency contraception intrauterine devices (EC IUDs) is slightly different. An EC IUD has to be fitted prior to implantation. This is a process that starts no sooner than 6 days after fertilisation, and fertilisation cannot happen prior to sexual intercou...
