DISCOVERY OF THE ENERGETIC PULSAR J1747โ€“2809 IN THE SUPERNOVA REMNANT G0.9+0.1

The supernova remnant G0.9+0.1 has long been inferred to contain a central energetic pulsar. In observations with the NRAO Green Bank Telescope at 2 GHz, we have detected radio pulsations from PSR J1747โˆ’2809. The pulsar has a rotation period of 52 ms, and a spin-down luminosity of erg sโˆ’1, the โ€ฆ
