Antony Hewish and (*) Jocelyn Bell discovered the first one, which was initially called LGM-1.
Hulse and Taylor discovered a binary one. Vela is one of the few known optical ones. Thomas Gold came up with an explanation for them. Millisecond ones are believed to be "spun up." Antony Hewish and (*) Jocelyn Bell discovered the first one, which was initially called LGM-1. One of these objects is located in the Crab Nebula. They exhibit the "lighthouse effect," and their main property is a consequence of magnetic fields and angular momentum. For 10 points, name these rotating neutron stars that emit characteristic bursts of radiation.
