We present an updated phase-coherent timing solution for the young, energetic pulsar B1509–58 from twenty years of data. Using a partially phase-coherent timing analysis, we show that the second frequency derivative is changing in time, implying a third frequency derivative of This value is consistent with the simple power law model of pulsar rotation.
