The contribution of millisecond pulsars to the Galactic cosmic-ray lepton spectrum
(Elsevier, 2015)Pulsars are believed to be sources of relativistic electrons and positrons. The abundance of detections of γγ-ray millisecond pulsars by Fermi Large Area Telescope coupled with their light curve characteristics that imply ... -
Statistical methods for constraining pulsar geometries via multiband light curve fitting
(North-West University, 2018)The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) is a high-energy satellite that operates in the Me V to Ge V band. Fermi has revolutionised pulsar physics by its clear detection of more than 200 of these objects in 1-rays. Since its ... -
An unbiased statistic for pulsar parameter estimation via dual-band light curve fitting
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)The wealth of multiwavelength pulsar data has stimulated the development of emission models that predict light curves (LCs) over multiple wavebands, most notably radio and gamma-ray. Using established statistical methods to ...
