Radio emission from neutron star's magnetic pole revealed by general relativity
- wglb 7y agoWonderful article. Also, what i have always found fascinating are the sounds derived from pulsar radio signals: http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/research/pulsar/Education/Sounds/ http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/research/pulsar/Education/Sounds/ Joe Taylor played similar sounds for us at a dinner at the Dayton Hamvention one year.
