The slowest spinning Galactic-field spider PSR J1932+2121: A history of inefficient mass transfer
Spiders are eclipsing millisecond pulsar binaries in which the pulsar ablates its low-mass companion; they are classified as black widows or redbacks based on companion mass. PSR J1932+2121 is a recently discovered Galactic-field redback millisecond pulsar (MSP) with a spin period of 14.2 ms, significantly slower than other known redbacks, and an unusually high surface…
