The eclipsing binary millisecond pulsar PSR B1744-24A - Possible test for a magnetic braking mechanism
As presented by Nice et al. (2000), long-term timing of the eclipsing binary PSR B1744-24A shows that the orbital period of this system decreases with a time-scale of only similar to200 Myr. To explain the orbital period decay, which is much faster than that predicted by emission of gravitational wa...
