Notes. The binary model assumes a neutron star mass of 1.4 M, and the minimum (maximum) companion mass corresponds to an inclination angle of 90° (26°). The flux density, spectral index and circular polarization fraction of PSR J1740-2805 are taken from Frail et al. (2024). We quote errors at a 95 percent confidence level.
