Pulsar
Appearance
Pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits periodic electromagnetic radiation detectable as regular pulses. It is associated with strong magnetic fields and precise rotational stability.
Pulsars are discussed in astrophysics, stellar remnants, and high-energy astronomy.
Status
Pulsars are identified through radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray observations. Their timing properties are used to study neutron star physics, gravitational effects, and the interstellar medium.
