flip flop and flap?
The paper i posted merely pointed out that the majority (20 out of 20) of millisecond pulsars found in Tuc47 in that paper were indeed binary systems.
This was only in response to you saying they did not exist... let us repeat...

So when Thornhill / Scott point out that we are finding out that pulsars are proving to be part of binary systems, they are indeed quite correct.
Peratt's model is slightly different and does not depend on binary per se.... But the point with both of these models is that a far more plausible function of emission exists, rather than invoking a rotating gravity blob that spins at 25% of light. We have these relaxation oscillators well developed in technology and Peratt's paper includes physical experimentation that matches the waveforms detected.
The hypothesis here is that electrical effects 'can' provide an emission function to match our observations, including the waveform which tracks very much like lightning and other plasma emissions.
As we find faster and faster pulse rates, the rotating gravity beacon model will require yet more inventions to hold the star together as it moves beyond 25% of C in velocity. See Strange-Matter-Stars. The relaxation discharge models do not suffer from these inherent weaknesses.
Bojan had a point regarding "Frequency Glitches".... now ask yourself... if you have an insanely heavy super dense start spinning faster than a dentist drill, what is the energy involved to provide the torque to (1) slow the star, (2) speed it back up... It is massive.... yes acoustic modeling and "star quakes" have attempted to provide some answers for this. For an oscillation of a plasma emission, this is far simpler explanation requiring far less energy.
2 models, 2 very different predictions.
