摘要

脉冲星的发现是人类认识宇宙的重要里程碑之一。介绍了脉冲星自发现至今55年来的研究进展,包括引力波与广义相对论的验证、毫秒脉冲星、脉冲星周期跃变、脉冲星射电辐射效率、快速射电暴与河外脉冲星等方面。展望了中国天眼(FAST)未来发现新的特殊类型脉冲星的潜力,如黑洞脉冲星系统/亚毫秒脉冲星/新型双脉冲星系统,依此实施更高精度验证引力波实验;利用FAST的高灵敏度、高精度研究脉冲星辐射的精细结构,深入了解其物理机制。

Abstract

Pulsars discovery is one of the important milestones in human understanding of the universe. In this paper, we briefly introduce the pulsar research of recent 55 years, including the verification of gravitational waves and general relativity, the findings of millisecond pulsars, pulsar periodic jumps, pulsar radio radiation efficiency, fast radio bursts and extragalactic pulsars. we look forward to the potential of the Chinese FAST telescope for the discovery of new types of special pulsars in the future, including black hole pulsar, sub-millisecond pulsar, and new double pulsar systems, which will lead to more accurate validation of gravitational wave experiments; the fine structure of pulsar radiation is also studied by FAST with high sensitivity and high precision, and the physical mechanism of pulsar radiation will be deeply understood.
