Neutron Stars



Atmospheres of Neutron Stars -- An interactive archive of neutron star atmosphere models, for advanced students & researchers. Visit

Black Holes & Neutron Stars -- This site offers a non-technical discussion about black holes & neutron stars. Topics include what they are, how they form, how we detect them, FAQs & a links page. Visit

Jodrell Bank Observatory: Pulsar Research -- As one of the research groups of the Jodrell Bank Observatory, we form part of the Department of Physics & Astronomy of the University of Manchester, in the United Kingdom. We have many collaborations with other research groups across the world and, in particular, with the ATNF with whom we're the main partners in the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey Visit
