    Beschreibung: We have conducted timing observations of the eclipsing millisecond binary pulsar PSR B1957+20, extending the span of data on this pulsar to more than five years. During this time the orbital period of the system has varied by roughly Delta P(sub b)/P(sub b) = 1.6 x 10(exp -7), changing quardratically with time and displaying with time and displaying an orbital period second derivative of P(sub b) = (1.43 +/- 0.08) x 10(exp -18)/sec. The previous measurement of a large negative orbital period derivative reflected only the short-term behavior of the system during the early observations; the orbital period derivative is now positive. If, as we suspect, the PSR B1957+20 system is undergoing quasi-cyclic orbital period variations similar to those found in other close binaries such as Algol and RS CVn, then the 0.025 solar mass companion to PSR B1957+20 is most likely non-degenerate, convective, and magnetically active.

    Beschreibung: Radio pulsars provide unparalleled opportunities for making measurements of astrophysically interesting phenomena. The author concentrates on two particular applications of high precision timing observations of pulsars: tests of relativistic gravitation theory using the binary pulsar 1913+16, and tests of cosmological models using timing data from millisecond pulsars. New upper limits are presented for the energy density of a cosmic background of low frequency gravitational radiation.

    Beschreibung: Pulse time-of-arrival measurements have been acquired for PSR 1957 + 20 on 61 days over a 2.7 yr interval, including the times of 44 eclipse disappearance or reappearance events. The timing data provide a reliable measurement of the pulsar's proper motion, 29 +/- 3 mas/yr, at position angle 216 +/- 6 deg; this direction is in excellent agreement with that suggested by the cometlike shape of a surrounding optical emission nebula. The rate of change of the orbital period has been measured: a surprisingly large (-3.9 +/- 0.9) x 10 exp -11, implying that significant orbital evolution must take place on a time scale of 30 Myr. Finally, the present observations extend the eclipse measurements to higher frequencies and provide better statistics for these highly variable phenomena. The eclipse data are used to compute a column-density profile of free electrons in the outer parts of the eclipsing region, and thereby provide an important glimpse into the material being ablated from the companion star.

    Beschreibung: A parallax of 7.9 + or - 0.8 mas for PSR 0950+08, corresponding to a distance of 130 + or - 15 pc is reported. The measured pulse dispersion of this pulsar implies an average free electron density of 0.023 + or 0.002/cu cm along the line of sight. This parallax measurement is subject to systematic errors and questions of interpretation which are not yet fully explored.

    Beschreibung: Two millisecond pulsars have been discovered in the course of systematic surveys being made with the Arecibo radio telescope. PSR J2019 + 2425 has a 3.935 ms period and moves in a nearly circular, 76.5 day orbit around a about 0.3 solar mass companion. PSR J2322 + 2057, with a period of 4.808 ms, is an isolated object. The two pulsars have unusually small period derivatives, corresponding to spin-down time scales of 7.5 +/- 0.5 and 11 +/- 5 Gyr, respectively. Both objects show pulse time-of-arrival residuals no larger than a few microseconds over many months, lending further support to the observation that 'recycled' pulsars have extremely stable rotational behavior. The timing results also confirm that physics related to the rotational dynamics of these strongly self-gravitating stars - in particular, the value of the gravitational coupling constant G - remains essentially constant over time scales comparable to the Hubble time. Dispersion measures of the two pulsars indicate distances of 0.8-0.9 kpc.

    Beschreibung: We present results from observations of 104 pulsars made between 1989 August and 1993 April, including timing solutions for 96 of them. Pulse profiles were recorded at four frequencies in the range 0.4-1.64 GHz, yielding topocentric pulse arrival times with uncertainties of order 10(exp -3) periods. Models fitted to the timing data yield accurate positions, periods, period derivatives, and dispersion measures for each pulsar. Nine of the measured period derivatives are new, and most of the parameters represent improvements upon previous measurements. In a few cases we correct some erroneous parameter values from the published literature. A glitch was observed in the PSR B1800-21 pulse arrival times, and we fit a simple exponential model to the post-glitch recovery. We present graphs of the observed pulse shapes and their evolution with frequency, a table of measured pulase widths, and quantitative estimates of the long-term timing stability of each pulsar.

    Beschreibung: The present quantitative model for Galactic free electron distribution abandons the assumption of axisymmetry and explicitly incorporates spiral arms; their shapes and locations are derived from existing radio and optical observations of H II regions. The Gum Nebula's dispersion-measure contributions are also explicitly modeled. Adjustable quantities are calibrated by reference to three different types of data. The new model is estimated to furnish distance estimates to known pulsars that are accurate to about 25 percent.
