Coupled axisymmetric pulsar magnetospheres (2018)
Journal Article
Gourgouliatos, K. N., & Lynden-Bell, D. (2018). Coupled axisymmetric pulsar magnetospheres. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 482(2), 1942-1954. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty2766

We present solutions of force-free pulsar magnetospheres coupled with a uniform external magnetic field aligned with the dipole magnetic moment of the pulsar. The inclusion of the uniform magnetic field has the following consequences: the equatorial... Read More about Coupled axisymmetric pulsar magnetospheres.

Relativistic Centrifugal Instability (2018)
Journal Article
Gourgouliatos, K. N., & Komissarov, S. S. (2018). Relativistic Centrifugal Instability. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 475(1), L125-L129. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/sly016

Near the central engine, many astrophysical jets are expected to rotate about their axis. Further out they are expected to go through the processes of reconfinement and recollimation. In both these cases, the flow streams along a concave surface and... Read More about Relativistic Centrifugal Instability.

The Glitches and Rotational History of the Highly Energetic Young Pulsar PSR J0537–6910 (2018)
Journal Article
Ferdman, R., Archibald, R., Gourgouliatos, K., & Kaspi, V. (2018). The Glitches and Rotational History of the Highly Energetic Young Pulsar PSR J0537–6910. Astrophysical Journal, 852(2), Article 123. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaa198

We present a timing and glitch analysis of the young X-ray pulsar PSR J0537−6910, located within the Large Magellanic Cloud, using 13 yr of data from the now-decommissioned Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. Rotating with a spin period of 16 ms, PSR J0537−... Read More about The Glitches and Rotational History of the Highly Energetic Young Pulsar PSR J0537–6910.
