Search for pulsars in an area with coordinates 3h < α< 4h and +21o < δ< +42o

Abstract

On the Large Phased Array (LPA) of Lebedev Physics Institute (LPI), a search for pulsars outside the Galaxy plane was carried out in a 300 sq. deg area. The search with a sensitivity 5-10 times better than that of previously conducted surveys was at a frequency of 111 MHz. The search was carried out in the summed power spectra. With an accumulation equivalent to 100 hours of continuous observations for each point of the area, 5 known pulsars were detected with a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) from 20 to 1300 in the first harmonic of the spectrum. Average profiles were obtained for the detected pulsars. Estimates of the peak and integral flux densities of the found pulsars are given for individual sessions and for the power spectra summarized over 5.5 years, obtained using the developed method based on measurements of the height of harmonics in the power spectrum. No new pulsars have been detected in the area. Apparently, when searching for pulsars in the area, we have approached the lower limit of the luminosity of the second pulsars. The completeness of the survey is at the level of 0.5 mJy.
