🚨 Public service announcement 🚨

Black Holes have a whole week dedicated to them. We think Neutron Stars deserve one too!

So @rami.spaceaustralia.com and I are making it happen!

✨ Welcome to Neutron Star Week ✨

⏰ 8 years ago today, at this very moment, two neutron stars collided, rippling spacetime & lighting up the sky — we said hello to #GW170817!

This was the first gravitational wave event to be seen & heard.

It’s time for a tour through the Universe to meet some iconic neutron stars: pulsars, magnetars, mergers & more! ✨

We’ll start 130 million light-years away, with two neutron stars that are no more… 👀

It's #NeutronStarWeek!

Come with me on a tour through the Universe to meet some iconic neutron stars: pulsars, magnetars, mergers & more!

But let's start 130,000,000 light-years away, with two neutron stars that are no more... 👀

I missed International Cat Day?! 😱

Shame on me.

So here, I give you, Pulsar Kitty.

It’s spinning pretty fast at ~700 times purr second. And it’s got some weird loopy magnetic field whiskers. And those beams of radiation from its eyes?! It’s a cosmic kitty lighthouse! ✨

#NeutronStars #Pulsars
A whimsical illustration of a pulsar depicted as a cat floating in space by @astronerdika. The cat is dark gray with glowing white eyes, and it appears semi-transparent with soft edges, giving it a rapidly spinning appearance. Two bright green beams of light emerge from its eyes pointing in opposite directions, representing the pulsar’s radiation beams. Curved cyan lines loop around the cat from where whiskers would emerge, symbolizing magnetic field lines. The background is a dark filled with small, glowing white dots representing distant stars.

It's been a meh kind of day where nothing got ticked off on the to-do list. BUT I gave a webinar for the UK Quantum Fluids network about hiccups in #neutronstars and that was lots of fun. Interdisciplinary science always cheers me up 😊. Will post a link for anyone interested once the talk is online.

The Crab Pulsar is slowly losing rotational energy as it powers the nebula around it!

It drives a powerful wind of particles and magnetic fields that helps keep the Crab Nebula glowing ✨

#CrabNebula #Pulsars #NeutronStars
Infographic featuring PSR B0531+21, the Crab Pulsar, about 6200 light-years from Earth. A colourful stylised Crab Nebula in blue, green, yellow and red surrounds a glowing pulsar at its centre. Text reads, “a pulsar spinning ~30 times per second at the heart of the Crab Nebula.” An orange handwritten note says, “we saw its birth in 1054!” The background shows a map of the Universe with dashed, logarithmically spaced distance contours and an orange dot marking the location of the Crab Pulsar on a distance scale relative to Earth.

Meet PSR J1748−2446ad:
The fastest-spinning pulsar known 💨

It makes one full turn in just ~1.4 milliseconds!

Like other millisecond pulsars, it was likely “spun up” by accreting matter from a companion.

#Astronomy #Pulsars #NeutronStars
Infographic featuring PSR J1748−2446ad, about 20,000 light-years from Earth. A pale-blue pulsar is shown with cyan magnetic-field loops, a purple rotation axis and a wavy dotted beam. Text reads, “the fastest-spinning pulsar, it spins 716.35 times per second!” An orange handwritten note says, “it’s faster than a kitchen blender! pulsar go brrr…” The background shows a map of the Universe with dashed, logarithmically spaced distance contours and an orange dot marking the location of PSR J1748−2446ad on a distance scale relative to Earth.
