Brightest, farthest pulsar in the universe discovered
In the article they throw in a paragraph to explain pulsars to us...
A little later, they report...Pulsars were once huge stars that exploded as a powerful supernova at the end of their life, before becoming small and extremely dense stellar corpses.
Corpses don't have a pulse.The pulsar emits a pulse of radiation about once every second. ... In that one second, the pulsar emits the same amount of energy released by our sun every 3.5 years...
If it has a pulse, it isn't a corpse.
And in this instance, their corpse is way more energetic than our Sun.
Bad usage of language like this is a big red flag, signalling that the standard theory of pulsars is totally way off the mark.
So it is no surprise to me, that they are surprised...
A mortician would also be surprised, if he detected a pulse in a corpse.The energy released by the pulsar was a surprise to astronomers: "Something else is needed in our models in order to account for the enormous amount of energy released by the object," said Gian Luca Israel of the Astronomical Observatory of Rome in Italy, lead author of the study.
It is sad to see how such explanations are still being believed and promoted, when there are simple and much more believable explanations put forth.
Electric Universe theory puts forth the something else they need in their models.
From Strange Star or Strange Science by Wal Thornhill.
From Electric Pulsars by Stephen Smith.The x-ray pulses are caused by regular electric discharges between two or more orbiting, normally constituted, electrically charged bodies. It is a manifestation of a periodic arc instead of a spinning star.
~Paul...it is the capacitive, resistive, and inductive electrical environment around the star that generates an oscillation.
What is observed are intense magnetic fields pulsing at times in fractions of a second. It is a well-established fact that magnetic fields are induced by electric currents. Therefore, there must be an electric current generating the intense fields in a pulsar. It is also indisputable that the feeder current must be part of a circuit, since persistent electric current must flow in a completed circuit.
The oscillations in pulsars are caused by resonant effects in electric circuits. The sudden release of stored electrical energy in a “double layer” is responsible for their energetic outbursts.
