Stochastic temporal wandering of the spin frequency ν of a rotation-powered pulsar (ie the
achromatic component of timing noise unrelated to interstellar propagation) affects the …

In this article we revise the problem of anomalous values of pulsar braking indices n obs and
frequency second derivatives arising in observations. The intrinsic evolutionary braking is …

We present an analysis of the timing observations on 27 radio pulsars, collected at
Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory (HartRAO), with time spans ranging …

A quantitative analysis of radio pulsar timing noise is presented. Our analysis employs the
recently reported strong correlation (with correlation coefficient r= 0.95) between the …

We analyzed the timing parameters (the rotational frequency\(\nu\), the first\(\left (\dot
{\nu}\right)\) and second\(\left (\ddot {\nu}\right)\) time-derivatives of frequency) and the …

Quasi-regular timing observations obtained, using the 26 m Hartebeesthoek Radio
Astronomy Observatory radiotelescope near center frequencies of 1.668 and 2.272 GHz …

The measurements of pulsar frequency second derivatives have shown that they are 102–
106 times larger than expected for standard pulsar spin-down law. Moreover, the second …

Glitches are sudden, sharp increases in the spin frequencies of pulsars. A fraction of this
change is recovered in subsequent relaxation, sometimes consists of exponential transients …

We model the evolution of the spin frequency's second derivative v̈ and the braking index n
of radio pulsars with simulations within the phenomenological model of their surface …

We investigate the statistical effects of non-discrete timing irregularities on observed radio
pulsar braking indices using correlations between the second derivative of the measured …
