Description | Is taking the liberty of sending six reprints all written before the paper of Gunn and Ostriker that Harrison gives as prime reference for the theory that pulsars are rotating neutron stars with strong magnetic fields deriving their energy from rotation.
States it is particularly comical to give that referece, since Ostriker was in fact one of the vocal opponents of Gold's theory until 1970, and published arguments why pulsating white dwarfs woudl do it.
Gold is studying his paper, and will probably give him some other considerations that limit the possibilities. |
