Neutron stars | Rotating radio transients

Rotating radio transient

Rotating radio transients (RRATs) are sources of short, moderately bright, radio pulses, which were first discovered in 2006. RRATs are thought to be pulsars, i.e. rotating magnetised neutron stars which emit more sporadically and/or with higher pulse-to-pulse variability than the bulk of the known pulsars. The working definition of what a RRAT is, is a pulsar which is more easily discoverable in a search for bright single pulses, as opposed to in Fourier domain searches so that 'RRAT' is little more than a label (of how they are discovered) and does not represent a distinct class of objects from pulsars. As of March 2015 over 100 have been reported. (Wikipedia).

Separation of Variables - Cylindrical Coordinates (Part 1)

A vibrating drum can be described by a partial differential equation - the wave equation. For a circular drum, the solution for the vibration can be found by using the technique of Separation of Variables in Cylindrical coordinates.
