Mining X-Ray Time For Pulsar Spin

In this video I discuss a data mining project where I have been mining through x-ray timing data to find measurements of different pulsars' spin frequencies to catalog the evolution of there rotational dynamics. Access the preliminary results here: https://pulsars.kuechel-astrophysics.com/ Data and Heasoft Software comes from the HEASARC: https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/ This work would not be possible without the efforts and operations of HEASARC, the NICER and XTE missions, and the HEASoft Software. A great paper on the topic of finding evidence of oscillations by Tod E. Strohmayer and Craig B. Markwardt: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1086/342152/pdf
