Before we can understand the “secret” of the pulsars, it is necessary to understand what a pulsar actually “is”.
There are 2 steps to this understanding:
Being able to understand what a neutron star “is”understanding when a neutron star becomes a “pulsar”.

Before we can understand the “secret” of the pulsars, it is necessary to understand what a pulsar actually “is”. There are 2 steps to this understanding:Being able to understand what a neutron star “is”understanding when a neutron star becomes a “pulsar”.

Finally, to complete the model, when the pulsar is really spinning fast, let us consider that the matter being sucked in along the poles is then ejected from the pulsar along the spin axis.

The result of this latter scheme is that the matter falling in adds to the angular momentum of the pulsar, while the matter being ejected does not cause a loss of angular momentum because it is being ejected along the spin axis. i.e. this process adds angular momentum to the pulsar without adding matter to the pulsar since everything that is sucked in is also ejected out.

I am developing this web site is to follow up on the work I did on X-ray pulsars between 1971 and 1973.That work included making the discoveries that both Cen X-3 and Her X-1 are members of close binary systems and their x-rays are fueled by interacting with the atmospheres of their respective companions.
