摘要
We present timing data spanning 6.4 yr for the young and energetic PSR J0205+6449, in the supernova remnant 3C 58. Data were obtained with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, the Jodrell Bank Observatory, and the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope. We present phase-coherent timing analyses showing timing noise and two spin-up glitches with fractional frequency increases of similar to 3.4 x 10(-7) near MJD 52555 and similar to 3.8 x 10(-6) between MJDs 52777 and 53062. These glitches are unusually large if the pulsar was created in the historical supernova in 1181, as has been suggested. For the X-ray timing, we developed a new unbinned maximum likelihood method for determining pulse arrival times, which performs significantly better than the traditional binned techniques. In addition, we present an X-ray pulse profile analysis of four years of RXTE data showing that the pulsar is detected up to similar to 40 keV. We also present the first measurement of the phase offset between the radio and X-ray pulse for this source, showing that the radio pulse leads the X-ray pulse by phi = 0.10 +/- 0.01 in phase. We compile all known measurements of the phase offsets between radio and X-ray and radio and gamma-ray pulses for X-ray and gamma-ray pulsars. We show that there is no relationship between pulse period and phase offset, supported by our measurement of the phase offset for PSR J0205+6449.
