Jocelyn Bell Burnell is a renowned astrophysicist from Northern Ireland, best known for her pivotal role in the discovery of pulsars. While working on her Ph.D. at the University of Cambridge in the 1960s, she and her advisor, Antony Hewish, detected regular radio signals from space, which were later identified as pulsars—rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of radiation.
