论文摘要
紧密二进制的毫秒脉冲星最近在我们对二进制发展的演变以及天体血浆和电磁场之间相互作用的物理过程的理解方面开辟了新的挑战。过渡系统显示，从旋转驱动到积聚的状态，反之亦然，已经弥合了无线电的种群和毫秒脉冲，最终证明了回收情景所设想的紧密进化链接。十年的发现和理论努力刚刚抓住了从无线电到伽马射线频段的过渡毫秒脉冲星的复杂现象学。这篇评论总结了迄今为止发现的三个过渡性毫秒脉冲星以及候选人和相关系统的主要特性，讨论了提出的各种模型，以应对多方面的行为。
Millisecond pulsars in tight binaries have recently opened new challenges in our understanding of physical processes governing the evolution of binaries and the interaction between astrophysical plasma and electromagnetic fields. Transitional systems that showed changes from rotation-powered to accretion powered states and vice versa have bridged the populations of radio and accreting millisecond pulsars, eventually demonstrating the tight evolutionary link envisaged by the recycling scenario. A decade of discoveries and theoretical efforts have just grasped the complex phenomenology of transitional millisecond pulsars from the radio to the gamma-ray band. This review summarises the main properties of the three transitional millisecond pulsars discovered so far, as well as of candidates and related systems, discussing the various models proposed to cope with the multifaceted behaviour.
