Finally , due to the rapid rotation of the neutron star , or the evolution of the companion , the infall of matter stops , the x - ray emission declines , and the neutron star emerges as a radio - emitting millisecond pulsar 最后,由于中子星疾速的自转,或是伴星自身的演化,物质的流入停止, x射线辐射减弱,这颗中子星就呈现出了毫秒脉冲星的面目。
Most astronomers accept the binary spin - up scenario for creating millisecond pulsars because they have observed neutron stars speeding up in x - ray binary systems , and almost all radio millisecond pulsars are observed to be in binary systems 多数天文家接受这个假想的模式,因为他们已经在x射线双星系统中观测到了中子星的加速现象,而且几乎所有的毫秒脉冲星都被发现时处于双星系统中。
A millisecond pulsar (MSP) is a pulsar with a rotational period in the range of about 1-10 milliseconds. Millisecond pulsars have been detected in the radio, X-ray, and gamma ray portions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
