PURPOSE Families with children are frequently exposed to pinworm infection and treatment involves the whole family. Information on consequences of exposure during, pregnancy is limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the exposure to pyrvinium and mebendazole before, during, and after pregnancy in a Danish nationwide cohort. METHODS From nationwide administrative registers, we identi...

Averaged pulse profiles of three nearby pulsars: B1929+10, J0437−4715 and B0950+08 exhibit unusual ‘double notches’. These W-like looking features consist of two adjacent V-shaped dips that approach each other at increasing observation frequency νobs roughly at a rate ∆ ∝ ν obs , where ∆ is the separation between the notches’ minima. We show that basic properties of the notches, namely their W-...

Rotochemical heating originates in a departure from beta equilibrium due to spin-down compression in a rotating neutron star. The main consequence is that the star eventually arrives at a quasi-equilibrium state, in which the thermal photon luminosity depends only on the current value of the spin-down power, which is directly measurable. Only in millisecond pulsars the spin-down power remains h...
