[Auszug] Radio timing observations7 made not long after the discovery of PSR J0045 - 73199 showed that the minimum mass of the pulsar companion is 4 solar masses (4M0), and optical observations revealed a 16-mag main-sequence B star near the pulsar timing position. The association was confirmed by the ...
