A planet orbiting the pulsar PSR J0636+5129 could be detected through radio emission produced by its interaction with the pulsar wind.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

We find that the planet around a known pulsar, PSR J0636+5129 b, could be detected via its radio emission.

C2weakest assumption

The planet is modeled as a perfectly conducting solid surface interacting with the pulsar's external magnetic field, producing radio emission specifically in the extended nightside magnetic structure that is observable without dominant interference.

C3one line summary

Special relativistic simulations predict detectable radio emission from nightside magnetic structures around planets in pulsar winds, including for the known planet PSR J0636+5129 b.
