Chinese Astronomers Discover Rare Pulsar Hidden Behind Companion Star

Chinese scientists have discovered a unique binary system, PSR J1928+1815, which includes a pulsar and a companion star. These objects are located at a distance of 455 light years and orbit each other every 3.6 hours. Periodically, the companion star partially overlaps the pulsar's radio signals, which allowed researchers to study the mechanisms of interactions in such systems. The discovery was made using the FAST (False... The post Chinese Ast…
