A figure of merit for kinematic limitation of binary-pulsar tests of orbital decay

2026-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The observed orbital period derivative $\dot{P}_b$ of a binary pulsar contains kinematic contributions --- the Shklovskii term and the differential Galactic acceleration --- that must be subtracted before the residual can be compared with the general-relativistic (GR) prediction for gravitational-wave emission; both contributions depend on the distance to the system. We ask, for a popul...
