Module 5B, Cole K

Here is the sonification for PSR 1133+16.

For this observation I used pulsar mode to save me time with analysis and Sky net gave me this useful Jpeg of different charts and information. The period of this pulsar was 1168.4 ms. A typical Neutron star has a radius of about 12 km and a mass of 1.4 solar masses. With this information we can calculate our moment of inertia, once we know the inertia we can use that to then solve for the Kinetic Energy.  I got an Kinetic Energy approximatley equal to 4.33×10^38.
