Acceleration (blue line) and jerk (orange line) as a function of time for a binary pulsar of spin period 20 ms in a 6.7-h circular orbit around another neutron star of mass 1.35 M⊙. This simulation assumes an inclination angle of 60 degrees. The intersection of the grey bands indicate the sections of the orbit where our PRESTO acceleration and jerk search remains sensitive to the pulsar signal with the specified number of harmonics Nh.
