Detailed Description
The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are given solely for the purpose of illustration and are not to be construed as limitations of the invention, including the drawings which are incorporated herein by reference and for illustration only and are not to be construed as limitations of the invention, since many variations thereof are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining a synthetic pulsar time based on a timing residual, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
s1, selecting at least two optimal pulsar according to preset optimal screening conditions, and obtaining an initial timing residual error and an initial error of each optimal pulsar.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, according to a preset optimal screening condition, in IPTA2019-Release2, a plurality of optimal pulsar is screened from 37 pulsars observed by NANOGrav, and a Tempo2 software is used to perform an operation on an ephemeris file and a model parameter of each pulsar to obtain an initial timing residual error and an initial error of each optimal pulsar, where in the present embodiment, the preset optimal screening condition includes:
(1) The optimal pulsar is a millisecond pulsar; the rotation stability of the millisecond pulsar is high, and the timing residual error is small, so that the millisecond pulsar is used as one of basic requirements of the optimal pulsar;
(2) The observation time span of the optimal pulsar needs to satisfy a preset observation time span threshold value so as to calculate the long-term stability of the pulsar in a subsequent step and study the noise characteristics, in this embodiment, the preset observation time span threshold value is preferably set to be more than 10yr (i.e., 10 years);
(3) The observation point number (i.e., TOAs) of the optimal pulsar needs to satisfy a preset observation point number threshold value to improve the fitting precision of the timing model, and the preset observation point number threshold value is preferably set to be more than 8000 in the embodiment.
Based on the above optimal screening conditions, this example screened 8 pulsar as shown in table 1 from 37 pulsars observed by NANOGrav, and table 1 is as follows:
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003971520690000061
It should be noted that although the PSR J0437-4715 pulsar has a long observation year, the TOAs in the original observation data is only 5302, which is far less than that of other pulsars, and if they are selected together, the number of points after down-sampling of other pulsars will be adversely affected to some extent, which is not favorable for improving the stability of the integrated pulsars, so this embodiment excludes the PSR J0437-4715 pulsars.
And S2, sequentially preprocessing and filtering the initial timing residual error of each optimal pulsar to obtain a corresponding smooth timing residual error.
In one embodiment, the step of sequentially preprocessing and filtering the initial timing residual of each optimal pulsar to obtain a corresponding smooth timing residual includes:
extracting gross error points of the initial timing residual error of each optimal pulsar by using an absolute median deviation method;
zeroing the gross error point of each optimal pulsar, and performing interpolation processing on the gross error point by using a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation method to obtain a preprocessed initial timing residual error;
and performing filtering and noise reduction treatment on the preprocessed initial timing residual error by using Vondrak filtering to obtain a smooth timing residual error of each optimal pulsar.
As shown in fig. 2, in this embodiment, the initial timing residuals of the 8 optimal pulsar are respectively preprocessed and Vondrak filtered, wherein the preprocessing step adopts an absolute median offset Method (MAD) to extract coarse difference points of the pulsar timing residuals, which specifically includes:
Figure BDA0003971520690000071
in the formula, x j (j =1,2.. N.) represents the initial timing residual vector.
If x j If the above equation is satisfied, it indicates that the initial timing residual exceeds the gross error threshold, in this embodiment, the initial timing residual is taken as a gross error point, the gross error point is subjected to zeroing processing, and then the gross error point is subjected to interpolation processing by using a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation method to obtain a preprocessed initial timing residual, so that the preprocessed initial timing residual is more reasonable and smooth, thereby avoiding a Runge phenomenon; after the initial timing residual is preprocessed, the embodiment further performs filtering and denoising processing on the preprocessed initial timing residual through von-randak filtering to filter out high-frequency noise.
It should be noted that although pulsar J0437-4715 is not included in 8 optimal pulsars, it can be used for demonstration experiments (the results of other 8 pulsars are similar), fig. 3 is a timing residual comparison diagram before and after the pulsars J0437-4715 remove the coarse difference point by the MAD method; FIG. 4 is a comparison diagram of timing residuals before and after preprocessing performed by pulsar J0437-4715, wherein in FIG. 4, a preprocessing curve with the Runge phenomenon is a curve generated by replacing cubic Hermite interpolation with cubic spline interpolation in preprocessing; FIG. 5 is a comparison of pulsar J0437-4715 timing residuals before and after Vondrak filtering.
And S3, selecting a reference pulsar, and performing equidistant downsampling on the smooth timing residual error and the initial error of each optimal pulsar according to the number of observation points of the reference pulsar to obtain the corresponding downsampled timing residual error and downsampled initial error.
Specifically, in this embodiment, all the optimal pulsar is screened according to a preset reference screening condition to obtain a reference pulsar, and the reference pulsar observation julian day is used as a reference julian day; wherein the preset reference screening conditions include: the optimal pulsar with the minimum observation point number (TOAs) is selected as a reference pulsar, and according to the optimal pulsar selected in table 1, the pulsar PSR J1643-1224 with the minimum TOAs is selected as the reference pulsar in the embodiment, and the observation julian day ((modified julian date, MJD)) range of the reference pulsar, that is, the MJD3 is used as the reference julian day.
Then, this example compares N i (i =1,2, \8230; 8) TOAs noted as the ith best pulsar, in particular, N = min { N { i }=N 3 Wherein N is 3 TOAs of reference pulsar No. 3 PSR J1643-1224 in Table 1 are shown, and res is recorded in this example i And err i The smooth timing residual and the initial error of the ith optimal pulsar are respectively expressed as:
Figure BDA0003971520690000081
Figure BDA0003971520690000082
according to the observation number of the reference pulsar, performing equidistant downsampling on the smooth timing residual error and the initial error of each optimal pulsar to obtain a corresponding downsampled timing residual error and a downsampled initial error, aligning the timing residual error and the error number of each optimal pulsar through downsampling, and selecting the julian date of the reference pulsar as a unified condition during data processing to form an interpretable (credible) comprehensive pulsar, wherein the downsampled timing residual error and the downsampled initial error are respectively:

wherein res i ' represents the timing residual after the down-sampling of the ith optimal pulsar; err (r) i ' represents the initial error after the down-sampling of the ith optimal pulsar;<x>indicating that x is rounded off.
And S4, obtaining the stability of each optimal pulsar according to the timing residual after the down sampling and the initial error after the down sampling.
To eliminate the influence of linear frequency drift, the stability of pulsar is usually σ z Variance (also called Hadamard variance) evaluation, unlike Allan variance, etc., statistic z The calculation mode does not need to require that residual errors are distributed at equal intervals, and is particularly convenient for analyzing pulsar data, sigma z The calculation method of (after fitting) the timing residual with the time scale tau is fitted by using a cubic polynomial function, and the numerical value of the timing residual is determined by using a cubic polynomial coefficient c3, which specifically comprises the following steps: recording the total observation time of the data as T = T N -t 1 And divided into subsequences of equal interval τ, set t 0 For reference time, a least squares fit is made to each subsequence using a cubic polynomial function X (t), i.e.:
X(t)=c 0 +c 1 (t-t 0 )+c 2 (t-t 0 ) 2 +c 3 (t-t 0 ) 3
wherein the stability sigma of each optimal pulsar zi The calculation formula of (τ) is specifically:

in the formula, t i (i =1,2, \8230;, n) indicates the observed time (in julian days) for the ith optimal pulsar, n =8 since 8 optimal pulsars were selected according to the method described above; x is the number of i Representing the timing residual error of the ith optimal pulsar; sigma i The error of the ith optimal pulsar is represented; tip bracket

Is represented on all subsequences by c 3 The inverse square of the uncertainty is weighted to make a weighted average.
And S5, obtaining a comprehensive weighted residual error and a comprehensive weighted error according to the stability of each optimal pulsar.
In one embodiment, the calculation formula of the integrated weighted residual and the integrated weighted error is:

And S6, obtaining the comprehensive pulsar time stability according to the comprehensive weighted residual error, the comprehensive weighted error and the reference julian day.
In one embodiment, the calculation formula of the integrated pulsar-time stability is as follows:
Figure BDA0003971520690000105
in the formula, σ General assembly (τ) represents integrated pulsar-time stability; τ represents a time scale; c. C 3 Indicating an error; res General assembly Representing the integrated weighted residual; x (MJD 3) represents a cubic polynomial fitting function; MJD3 represents the julian day of the reference pulsar; err (r) General assembly Representing the integrated weighted error.
In the embodiment, the reference pulsar is obtained by reference to the julian days MJD3 and the comprehensive weighted residual res General assembly And the combined weighted error err General (1) The integrated pulsar-time stability composed of 8 optimal pulsar is obtained through calculation, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram showing the comparison between the integrated pulsar-time stability and the stability of the 8 optimal pulsar in a single timekeeping mode, in fig. 6, the abscissa represents the time scale of calculating the stability, and the value is equal to the length of each subsequence (if the abscissa takes 0, the time scale tau takes a logarithmic value of 0, so tau is 1yr, sigma is z When calculating the stability, the observed data should be grouped and fitted by taking 1yr as a unit); ordinate represents σ z The logarithm of the stability value is shown in fig. 6, and the combined pulsar-time stability σ based on the classical weighted average algorithm is shown in this embodiment General assembly (τ) reached 1e-15.9 on a 22yr time scale, and table 2 shows the long and short term stability calculated for each of the 8 best pulsar, as shown below in table 2:
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0003971520690000111
The time scales of the long and short term stabilities in table 2 correspond to the left and right endpoints of the individual timekeeping curves of the 8 optimal pulsar in fig. 6, respectively, which are not specific values, but a range covering twice the span, because the observation time of each pulsar is different, and σ is different z The calculation of the stability is based on 2 in the time domainLogarithmically distributed; in fig. 6, since the single optimal pulsar PSR J1713+0747 with the highest stability under 22yr reaches only 1e to 15.0 (the observation time of PSR J1909 to 3744 is only half of 22yr, which is not taken into consideration), whereas the 22yr stability at the time of the integrated pulsar in fig. 6 is 1e to 15.9, it can be concluded that the integrated pulsar time stability obtained based on the timing residual data processing algorithm provided in this embodiment is generally 1 order of magnitude higher than that of the single pulsar.
The embodiment of the invention provides a comprehensive pulsar time determination method based on timing residual errors, which is characterized by sequentially preprocessing and filtering the initial timing residual error of each screened optimal pulsar to obtain a corresponding smooth timing residual error, and performing equidistant downsampling on the smooth timing residual error and the initial error of each optimal pulsar to determine the comprehensive pulsar time stability according to the downsampled timing residual error, the downsampled initial error and the julian days of reference pulsars. Compared with the prior art, the method for processing the pulsar timing residual errors based on preprocessing, vondrak filtering and down sampling is adopted, meanwhile, a classic weighted average algorithm is used for establishing comprehensive pulsar timing for the timing residual errors after 8 optimal pulsars are processed, the technical effects that the stability of 22yr is improved by 0.9 orders of magnitude compared with that of a single pulsar with the highest stability, and the average level of the stability of the single pulsar under the time scale is improved by more than 1 order of magnitude are achieved, and the method has important practical significance for pulsar timing.
It should be noted that, the sequence numbers of the above processes do not mean the execution sequence, and the execution sequence of each process should be determined by the function and the inherent logic of each process, and should not limit the implementation process of the embodiment of the present application.
