Numerical calculations on the base of stellar evolution and accretion torques, demonstrating how millisecond pulsars loose about half of their rotational energy during the final stages of the mass-transfer process before the pulsar turns on its radio beam.

The Ig Nobel Prizes honour scientific achievements that “should first make people laugh and then make them think”. The spoof prizes, first awarded by the US journal Annals of Improbable Research in 1991, have long since acquired cult status among scientists. This year’s chemistry award recognizes a study that proves the connection between the air in cinemas and different age ratings. The study was carried out in cooperation between the Max Planck the connection between the air in cinemas and the age rating. The study was carried out in cooperation between the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry and the University of Mainz.

Ein internationales Forscherteam unter Beteiligung von Astronomen vom Bonner Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie hat mit extrem hoher Präzision vermessen, dass sich Neutronensterne und Weiße Zwerge in einem Schwerefeld mit gleicher Beschleunigung bewegen. Dies gelang ihnen, indem sie die Bewegung des Pulsars PSR J0337+1715, eines Neutronensterns in einem ungewöhnlichen Dreifachsternsystem mit zwei Weißen Zwergen als Begleiter äußerst präzise vermessen haben.

An international research team including astronomers from the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy (MPIfR) in Bonn determined with extremely high precision that gravity causes neutron stars and white dwarf stars to fall with equal accelerations. They did this by precisely tracking the motion of pulsar PSR J0337+1715, a neutron star that is a member of an unusual triple star system.
