A star is all that's required. A solar system is made of at least one star, and the star has to be big enough to have gravity strong enough to bring other objects such as gas and rock and ice into it's orbit.
No, a pulsar is not a part of the solar system. Pulsars are highly magnetized, rotating neutron stars that emit beams of electromagnetic radiation, while the solar system consists of the Sun, planets, and other celestial objects that are gravitationally bound to the Sun.
the Oort Cloud, which is a spherical shell of icy objects located at the outermost reaches of the solar system. These comets are believed to originate from the early days of the solar system and occasionally get gravitationally nudged towards the inner solar system.
If the objects are in orbit around the sun then they are in the Solar System.
Our solar system consists of the sun, the planets, their moons, and a variety of smaller objects. The sun is at the center of the solar system, with other orbiting around it. The force of gravity holds the solar system together.

No, a star is not a part of our solar system. Our solar system consists of the Sun, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies that are gravitationally bound to the Sun. Stars are distant celestial objects that are not part of our solar system.
The property that determines whether an object is part of the solar system is if it orbits the Sun. Objects within the solar system, like planets, moons, asteroids, and comets, orbit around the Sun due to its gravitational pull. Any object that does not orbit the Sun, such as stars in other solar systems or interstellar objects, would be considered outside the solar system.

The Solar System[c] is the gravitationally bound system of the Sun and the objects that orbit it. The largest of such objects are the eight planets, in order from the Sun: four terrestrial planets, named Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars; and four giant planets, including two gas giants, Jupiter and Saturn, and two ice giants, named Uranus and Neptune. The terrestrial planets have a definite surface and are mostly made of rock and metal. The gas giants are mostly made of hydrogen and helium, while the ice giants are mostly made of volatile substances such as water, ammonia, and methane. In some texts, these terrestrial and giant planets are called the inner Solar System and outer Solar System planets respectively.
Sirius is not part of our Solar System, so it is not appropriate to talk about "other objects in the solar system".
They are bound to the sun in closed orbits by mutual gravitational attraction. Those that had too much kinetic energy to be captured and gravitationally bound to the sun, weren't, and they're gone.

A star and all the objects that orbit it are part of a solar system. The star is typically at the center of the system, and objects such as planets, moons, asteroids, and comets orbit around it due to its gravitational pull. These objects together form a dynamic and interconnected system.
