high-B radio pulsar

(HBRP)
(pulsar with a strong magnetic field)

A high-B radio pulsar (HBRP) is an object identified as a pulsar which shows a strong magnetic field (high B), in the range of those of magnetars, anomalous X-ray pulsars, and soft gamma repeaters (1013 gauss or above). All these are presumed neutron stars, but the term HBRP is generally used if it shows as (and is discovered as) a "normal" pulsar rather than from X-ray pulses or soft gamma-ray bursts.
