This artist's rendering illustrates a possible model for the transitional pulsar J1023. When astronomers can detect pulses in radio (green), the pulsar's energetic outflow holds back its companion's gas stream.
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This artist's rendering illustrates a possible model for the transitional pulsar J1023. When astronomers can detect pulses in radio (green), the pulsar's energetic outflow holds back its companion's gas stream. Sometimes the stream surges, creating a bright disk around the pulsar that can persist for years. The disk shines brightly in X-rays, and gas reaching the neutron star produces jets that emit gamma rays (magenta), obscuring the pulses until the disk eventually dissipates.Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center |
