Evidence for three-dimensional spin–velocity alignment in a pulsar
More than 50 years after the discovery of pulsars1 and confirmation of their association with supernova explosions2–4, the origin of the initial spin and velocity of pulsars remains largely a mystery. The typical...

New phase-coherent measurements of pulsar braking indices
Pulsar braking indices offer insight into the physics that underlies pulsar spin-down. Only five braking indices have been measured via phase-coherent timing; all measured values are less than 3, the value ex...
