Description	English: The black widow pulsar J1311 and its small stellar companion, viewed within their orbital plane. Powerful radiation and the pulsar's "wind" – an outflow of high-energy particles — strongly heat the facing side of the star to temperatures twice as hot as the sun's surface. The pulsar is gradually evaporating its partner, which fills the system with ionized gas and prevents astronomers from detecting the pulsar's radio beam most of the time. The star's surface is also distorted by the gravitational pull of the more massive pulsar.
