“Radio Astronomy: Observing the Invisible Universe” S:1 E:11 Pulsars and Gravity

S:1 E:11 Pulsars and Gravity A pulsar’s spin begins with its birth in a supernova and can be altered by transfer of mass from a companion star. Learn how pulsars, these precise interstellar clocks, are used to confirm Einstein’s prediction of gravitational waves by observations of a double-neutron-star system, and how we pull the pulsar signal out of the noise.
