Sort enke pulsar
En sort enke pulsar er indenfor astronomien en millisekundpulsar med en lavmasse ledsager i en omløbsbane.
Pulsaren kaldes en sort enke pulsar fordi elektromagnetiske stråling og partikelstråling opvarmer ledsagerens overflade og føre i løbet af nogle millioner år til en fuldstænding fordampning af ledsageren.
Der er opdaget følgende sort enke pulsarer:

At the same time, its magnetic field – usually extremely strong in neutron stars – is exceptionally weak...“In binary systems like the one we have now discovered, pulsars are known as ‘black widows’ because, like spiders of the same name, they eat their partners, so to speak,” explains Clark..."
