Strong-field tests of gravity with the double pulsar
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This first-ever double-pulsar system was discovered in 2003, consisting of two visible pulsars which orbit the common centre of mass in a slightly eccentric orbit in only 2.4 hours. One of the pulsars appears to be old and recycled with a spin period of only 22 ms. Its companion is younger and rotating slower with a period of 2.8 s, confirming the long-proposed recycling theory for millisecond pulsars. The system provides an exciting opportunity to study the workings of pulsar magnetospheres and represents a truly unique laboratory for relativistic gravitational physics. Both aspects are greatly facilitated by the very fortunate fact that the orbit is seen nearly perfectly edge on. This alignment allows the detection of the Shapiro delay in the pulse arrival times of the 22-ms pulsar when its pulses propagate through the curved space-time near the slowly rotating pulsar. In addition to updating on the continuing observations, this contribution introduces a new timing model that represents a variation of Damour-Deruelle (1986) for highly inclined orbits.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
