Summary

Description
English: The Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR), a network of thousands of linked radio antennas, primarily located in the Netherlands, has discovered two new millisecond pulsars by investigating previously unknown gamma-ray sources uncovered by NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Pulsar J0952-0607, highlighted at center, rotates 707 times a second and now ranks as second-fastest pulsar known. Radio emission from both pulsars dims quickly at higher radio frequencies, making them ideally suited for LOFAR. This composite image shows a portion of the gamma-ray sky as seen by Fermi.
