... Eclipses in the double--binary pulsar PSR J0737-3039 A/B . In the binary radio pulsar system J0737-3039 the faster pulsar A is eclipsed once per orbit while the slower pulsar B shows orbital-dependent variations of intensity. ... We construct a model of eclipses which reproduces the observed light curve up to intricate details and proves the long standing assumption of dipolar magnetic fields of neutron stars. ...

Presented on Tuesday, January 7, 2003 . We construct a detailed longitude-velocity diagram through the actual midplane of the Galactic H I disk. The Galactic midplane definition is based on single-dish sky surveys, and the detailed l-v slice ( Fig. 1 ) is extracted from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey ( CGPS ; Taylor et al. 2003 ). ... Note: other slices offset from this one were not shown in the AAS poster for lack of space, but they are available here . ...
