For sure - galactic clusters. Expansion of the universe is demonstrated via the redshift of galactic clusters (outside of the local galactic cluster which hosts the Milky Way galaxy).

Pulsars may also provide some insight into expansion via the emission of their light signatures, but it is not generally considered a specific support (in and of itself).

Are all neutron stars also pulsars?

No, not all neutron stars are pulsars. Pulsars are neutron stars that emit beams of radiation that are detectable from Earth as rapid pulses of light. While many neutron stars are pulsars, not all neutron stars exhibit this pulsing behavior.

Your question can not be answered exactly as it is asked. Many of the things in the universe come in various sizes. There are Galaxies and there are Super Galaxies. Super Galaxies can be bigger than clusters of galaxies. Planets and Moons come in all kinds of sizes. Some moons are the size of some minor and/or regular planets... such as Ganymede, and Titan for example. Both are larger than Mercury, and the minor planet Pluto. Pulsars are the remnants of a dying star, stars, meteors, and every thing you have asked about come in various sizes as well. I would recommend that you find and watch "The Universe" which I believe is on the Discovery Channel. There is an episode that deals with the largest things in the Universe. According to that source... the largest thing in the Universe is the "Cosmic Web". This show will deal with pretty much everything you have on your list. It is a very interesting show, and it repeats regularly.


Are pulsars found in supernova remnants.?

Yes, pulsars are often found in supernova remnants. Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of radiation, and they are formed when a massive star undergoes a supernova explosion. The remnants of the supernova provide the environment from which the pulsar originates.


Some neutron stars that emit pulses of radiation called?

Some neutron stars that emit pulses of radiation are known as pulsars. Pulsars rotate rapidly and emit beams of electromagnetic radiation from their magnetic poles, which are observed as regular pulses when they sweep across the Earth.


Who was the female british astronomer who helped discover pulsars?

Pulsars were discovered by accident in 1967 when Jocelyn Bell, working with Antony Hewish were looking for twinkling sources of radio radiation.

Where are pulsars located in space?

Pulsars are located every where around the universe keep in mind pulsars are neutron stars so that means they were formed by large stars that have aged and died out


How are pulsars related to supernovas?

Pulsars are formed during a supernova event when a massive star explodes, leaving behind a dense core called a neutron star. As this neutron star rotates rapidly, it emits beams of radiation that we detect as pulses, hence the name "pulsars." So, pulsars are directly related to the remnants of supernova explosions.

What is the same as a neutron star?

A pulsar. Neutron stars that are spinning rapidly can generate pulses of X-ray radiation, and are called "pulsars". Interestingly enough, the first discoveries of pulsars were termed "LGM objects", for "little green men"; before the structure was understood, scientists thought that the PRECISELY timed pulses of X-rays might have been some sort of interstellar radio beacons, a galactic electronic navigational aid.


Are pulsars a kind of neutron star?

Pulsars are not only a kind of neutron star, they are neutron stars. See related question.


Why are pulsars hot?

Pulsars are hot because they are highly magnetized and rapidly rotating neutron stars. The intense magnetic fields generated by pulsars accelerate particles to high energies, creating high temperatures. Additionally, the rapid rotation of pulsars causes friction and generates heat within their interiors.
