A neutron star is unimaginably dense. It contains the mass of the Sun, but has that mass squeezed into a ball perhaps 20km (12 1/2 miles) across. Further, neutron stars are so small that they can spin very rapidly, many times per second or faster. When they spin they emit electromagnetic radiation which can appear as flashes from earth.
If the magnetic pole of the neutron star is "pointed" [See related link - Pictorial of pulsar] towards Earth, they are called pulsars, as they "pulse" as they spin and can be detected.
The flashes produced by the pulsars are detected as the electro magnetic radio waves caught up by the radio telescopes

How can a neutron star not be a pulsar?
Over time a pulsar's spin period slows down sufficiently for the "pulse" to turn off (the "death line"). This occurs after about 10-100 million years, which means of all the neutron stars in the universe, around 99% no longer pulsate.

How is it determined that a pulsar does not lose time through millions of years?
I read in an article in Science News titled: Dead but not duds; that white dwarf stars sometimes pulsate. They keep time very well. The champion loser has only lost 1 second in 10 million years. What I would like to know is how scientists determine the time-keeping of a pulsar as far back as 10 million years?
What is the lighthouse of space?
The pulsar might be considered the lighthouse of space. It "flashes" or "blinks" at different rates depending on its speed of rotation. Pulsars (pulsating stars) are spinning neutron stars that are highly magnetized. Their spin, coupled with their emission of higly direction oriented "beams" of radiation, makes them appear to pulsate in a lighthouse effect. And that's how they got their nickname. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the pulsar.
