Only seven measurements, all on binary pulsars, have been made.

It was this work that led to the discovery of the first binary pulsar.

This has become possible thanks to precision observations of binary pulsars.

Since then, several other binary pulsars have been found.

At least eight other binary pulsars have been discovered.

Gravitational radiation has been indirectly confirmed through studies of binary pulsars.

There are now scores of binary pulsars known, and independent measurements have confirmed Taylor's results.

Tests in stronger gravitational fields are provided by the observation of binary pulsars.

As a result, Rosen's original theory has been refuted by observations of binary pulsars.

Taylor has used this first binary pulsar to make high-precision tests of general relativity.

This approach thus significantly boosts sensitivity to binary pulsars.

The system is also called the Hulse-Taylor binary pulsar after its discoverers.

I detected weak, rapidly variable, periodic signals from a binary pulsar."

"The distance to the binary pulsar," Maalot said, "from my original observations, turned out to be a little over ten light-years."

(This has been observed in the orbit of Mercury and in binary pulsars).

When it was discovered in 1988 it was the first eclipsing binary pulsar known.

Binary pulsars are one of the few tools scientists have to detect evidence of gravitational waves.

Karpal groaned, and flipped to another periodic source, a binary pulsar in Aquila.

Continued study of binary pulsars as they spin off energy over the years is essential, Dr. Taylor said in an interview.

Binary pulsars are one of the few objects which allow physicists to test general relativity in the case of a strong gravitational field.

There's work on quasar evolution, binary pulsars, the chromospheres of nearby stars, even those crazy interstellar proteins.

This approach is essentially the idea behind the post-Newtonian approximations used in constructing models of a gravitating system such as a binary pulsar.

He discovered the first optical counterpart of binary pulsars, and the first Globular cluster pulsar.

The orbits of these binary pulsars are decaying due to loss of energy in the form of gravitational radiation.

Observations of binary pulsars provide strong indirect evidence for the existence of gravitational waves (see Orbital decay, above).
