  • LGM-1
  • Lich
  • Hulse-Taylor
    • PSR B1913+16: The first binary pulsar, whose orbit is decaying due to the emission of gravitational radiation at the exact rate predicted by general relativity.
  • Vela
  • First-MSP
  • Navigator
    • PSR J0437-4715: The brightest millisecond pulsar, and the pulsar with the most stable period.
  • Cen X-3
  • SAX
  • Asteroid
    • PSR J0738-4042: The first pulsar observed to have been affected by asteroids.
  • The Double
  • Terzan
    • PSR J1748-2446ad: The shortest period pulsar, with a period of ~0.0014 seconds or ~1.4 milliseconds (716 times a second).
  • Sleeper
    • PSR J0901-4046: The longest period neutron star pulsar, with a period of 75.9 seconds.
  • AR Sco
    • AR Scorpii: The longest period pulsar, at 118.2 seconds, as well as one of the only known two white dwarf pulsars.
  • AE Aqr
  • The Trio
    • PSR J0337+1715: The first millisecond pulsar with 2 stellar mass companions.
  • Hibernator
    • PSR J1841-0500: Stopped pulsing for 580 days. One of only two pulsars known to have stopped pulsing for more than a few minutes.
  • Part-Timer
    • PSR B1931+24: Pulses for about a week and stops pulsing for about a month.
  • Swift
    • Swift J0243.6+6124: The most magnetic pulsar with 1.6×10^13 G.
  • Black Widow
  • Eccentric
    • PSR J1903+0327: A ~2.15 ms pulsar discovered to be in a highly eccentric binary star system with a Sun-like star.
  • Einstein
    • PSR J2007+2722: A 40.8-hertz 'recycled' isolated pulsar was the first pulsar found by volunteers on data taken in February 2007 and analyzed by distributed computing project Einstein@Home.
  • Redback
    • PSR J1311-3430: The first millisecond pulsar discovered via gamma-ray pulsations and part of a binary system with the shortest orbital period.
