Humans are able to detect pulsars when one of their beams crosses paths with the Earth. When this happens, we are able to detect the resulting electromagnetic radiation in the radar spectrum.

A Pulsar is highly magnetised, rotating neutron star that emits a beam of electromagnetic radiation.


A neutron star that rotates rapidly and emits light?

It's called a pulsar. However - ALL young neutron stars emit the said beam. It's only if that beam is detectable on Earth is it called a pulsar. So a Neutron Star and a Pulsar are the same thing. See related questions. but then again they are different.

A Pulsar is a highly magnetized, rotating neutron star that emit a beam of electromagnetic radiation.This can only be seen if the "beam" is pointing towards Earth.


Why do astronomers use the lighthouse theory when explaining about pulsar?

Because they both emit regular pulses of electromagnetic radiation


What do neutron stars emit?

If a neutron star's rotational period is fast enough to produce jets (A pulsar), said jets will emit radio waves, with faster periods emitting higher frequency radiation as well as the jets themselves emitting synchrotron radiation. Also, unless the neutron star were 0K, it will emit thermal radiation However, as far as a neutron star that isn't a pulsar, nobody knows if they emit anything but thermal radiation.

Can you prove that fairies are not real?

No. Any person trained in logic will tell you that 'you cannot prove a negative'. If you want to disprove the existence of fairies you first attempt to try and prove their existence. And the best you can do is to fail to prove it. The option to prove it always exists.
