Polarized Multiwavelength Emission from Pulsar Wind—Accretion Disk Interaction in a Transitional Millisecond Pulsar

Maria Cristina Baglio, Francesco Coti Zelati, Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca et al. • The Astrophysical Journal Letters (2025)

Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) bridge the evolutionary gap between accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond radio pulsars. These systems exhibit a unique subluminous X-ray state characterized by the prese...

Accretion Power in Astrophysics

Juhan Frank, Andrew R. King, Derek Jeffrey Raine • Cambridge University Press eBooks (2002)

Accretion Power in Astrophysics examines accretion as a source of energy in both binary star systems containing compact objects, and in active galactic nuclei. Assuming a basic knowledge of physics, the authors describe the physical process...

Is There a Retrograde Accretion Disk around 4U 1626–67? Tracking Torque Reversals with a State-space Model

Joseph O’Leary, Andrew Melatos, Tom Kimpson, Dimitris M. Christodoulou et al. • The Astrophysical Journal (2026)

X-ray timing studies of the persistent, Galactic, accretion-powered pulsar 4U 1626−67 reveal torque reversals, during which the pulse frequency ν ( t ) alternates between multiyear episodes of secular acceleration and deceleration, separate...
