Current Radio Sources

This article delves into various fascinating radio sources in our galaxy and beyond. It highlights significant astronomical phenomena, including pulsars like PSR B0329+54, PSR B0833-45 (the Vela Pulsar), and PSR B0531+21 (the Crab Pulsar), each with unique characteristics such as rotation periods and their historical significance. The Crab Pulsar, for instance, is the youngest known pulsar and lies at the heart of the Crab Nebula, formed from a supernova explosion observed in 1054 A.D. Explore these cosmic entities to understand their roles in the universe.

  8. Pulsar Sources PSR B0329+54 This pulsar is a typical, normal pulsar, rotating with a period of 0.714519 seconds, i.e. close to 1.40 rotations/sec. http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/~pulsar/Education/Sounds/B0329.au PSR B0833-45, The Vela Pulsar This pulsar lies near the centre of the Vela supernova remnant, which is the debris of the explosion of a massive star about 10,000 years ago. The pulsar is the collapsed core of this star, rotating with a period of 89 milliseconds or about 11 times a second. http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/~pulsar/Education/Sounds/vela.au PSR B0531+21, The Crab Pulsar This is the youngest known pulsar and lies at the centre of the Crab Nebula, the supernova remnant of its birth explosion, which was witnessed by Europeans and Chinese in the year 1054 A.D. as a day-time light in the sky. The pulsar rotates about 30 times a second. http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/~pulsar/Education/Sounds/crab.au
