VLBA Determination of the Distance to Nearby Star-forming Regions. II. Hubble 4 and HDE 283572 in Taurus (2007, background): “…such observations have proven capable of measuring the trigonometric parallax of sources within a few kiloparsecs of the Sun with a precision of a few percent (Brisken et al. 2000, 2002; Loinard et al. 2005, 2007; Xu et al. 2006; Hachisuka et al. 2006; Hirota et al. 2007; Sandstrom et al. 2007).”
The progenitors of compact-object binaries: impact of metallicity, common envelope and natal kicks (2018, methodology): “For instance, two out of nine accurate pulsar velocities computed by Brisken et al. (2002) are smaller than 40 km s−1.”
Water Maser Motions in W3(OH) and a Determination of Its Distance (2005, methodology): “The feasibility of annual parallax measurements with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) has been demonstrated at low frequencies by Brisken et al. (2002) who measured annual parallaxes of pulsars in the Galaxy and by van Langevelde et al. (2000) and Vlemmings et al. (2002) who measured distances…”
Getting Its Kicks: A VLBA Parallax for the Hyperfast Pulsar B1508+55 (2005, background): “The highest extant model-independent estimate of a NS velocity is 630 ± 40 km s−1 for PSR B1133+16 (Brisken et al. 2002).”
Supernova and neutron star limits on large extra dimensions reexamined (2003, unknown): “However, for PSR J0953+0755, also known as B0950+08, the older distance estimate of 120 pc was superseded by a VLBA measurement of 162 ± 5 pc [29], reducing the ﬂux by almost a factor of 2, and so we strike this pulsar from the list.”
Microarcsecond Radio Astrometry (2013, methodology): “With these improvements and using the VLBA a parallax with better than ±10% accuracy was obtained for PSR B0950+08 at a distance of 280 pc (Brisken et al. 2000), and nine other pulsar parallaxes with distances between 160 and 1400 pc have been reported (Brisken et al. 2002).”
