What is Pulsar?

Pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits a large amount of electromagnetic radiation (light, X -rays, radio waves, etc.) and particle nozzles. The neutron star is what remains when the star 4 - 8 times the weight of our sun burns most of the fuel and explodes in supernova. The outer layers of the star shoot quickly, while the star core collapses into a ball of approximately 20 km in diameter. Some neutron stars do not turn too fast, but those that do it are known as pulsars .

Sun massive than 8 times more weight of our solar collapse to form black holes that emit very small radiation, because their gravity is so deep that nothing can escape from it. The sun less than four times greater the weight of our sun turns into red giants and then brown dwarves without collapsing into a neutron star. But the sun that collapses into the neutron stars release a huge amount of energy due to total energy koLapsu. Sometimes you have a small initial rotation in the star core will increase considerably as soon as it is collapsed, because the ice skater tends to rotate faster and attract their hands closer together.

particles and electromagnetic radiation nozzles are based on two places to spinning neutron Star - northern and southern magnetic poles. Because the gravity of the neutron star is so massive (thousands of weights of the sun), very small matter or light escapes from any other part of the pulsar. Because the magnetic poles are slightly aligned by the axis of rotation, as well as on the ground, we observe pulsars as a light source that turns on and off at regular frequency, because the magnetic poles are rotated by rotation of the stars. This phenomenon was first observed by a postgraduate student Jocelyn Bell Burnell at the end of 1967.

Pulsars produce magnetic fields approximately trillion times more intense than Earth. Pulsars in binary configurations with normsThe stars are the easiest observable, because all neutron stars tend to download matter from their accompanying stars, resulting in a light acrevous disk. Pulsars growing mass from the accompanying star tends to rotate even faster as they get matter. Pulsars rotates somewhere between 10 and 1000 times per second, with some variants to spin even faster. The speed of rotation of some pulsers is so regular that they are known as the most accurate clock in space. Among the most exotic cosmological objects, Pulsars give us a window into a bizarre world where gravitational and electromagnetic fields are exposed to relativistic speeds, testing very limits of our understanding of physics.
