Lorimer and Matthews

Lorimer and Matthews are scientists known for their work on how pulsars—rotating neutron stars emitting regular radio signals—behave. They studied the timing of these signals to understand the pulsars' properties, such as their speed, orientation, and how their signals are affected by space and gravity. Their research helps us learn about extreme states of matter, gravitational effects, and the structure of our galaxy. Essentially, they've contributed valuable insights into how these cosmic lighthouses operate and what they reveal about the universe.
