Periodic modulation in pulse arrival times from young pulsars: a renewed case for neutron star precession

In a search for periodic variation in the arrival times of pulses from 151 young, energetic pulsars, we have identified seven cases of modulation consistent with one or two harmonics of a single fundamental with time-scale 0.5–1.5 yr. We use simulations to show that these modulations are statistical...
