The pulsar in question, they explain, is a millisecond pulsar that spins at more than 10,000 times per minute.

他们解释道，上述的这颗脉冲星，是一颗每分钟旋转超过10000次的疾速脉冲星。

An X-ray binary system has been formed, and the neutron star has made the crucial second step toward becoming a millisecond pulsar.

射线双星就这样形成了，于是这颗中子星就向成为毫秒脉冲星迈出了关键的第二步。

They suggest that these similarities between a known millisecond pulsar and a known X-ray binary provide the long-sought link between these types of objects.

他们认为，一个已知的毫秒脉冲星与一个已知的X射线双星之间的这种相似性，为我们提示了这两类天体间长期未知的内在联系。

Spotting such radio pulses would be more evidence that this specimen is destined to become a millisecond pulsar.
