The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT II: observing strategy for pulsar monitoring with subarrays

X. Song, P. Weltevrede, M. J. Keith +15

The Thousand Pulsar Array (TPA) project currently monitors about 500 pulsars with the sensitive MeerKAT radio telescope by using subarrays to observe multiple sources simultaneousl…

Identifying and mitigating noise sources in precision pulsar timing data sets

Boris Goncharov, D. J. Reardon, R. M. Shannon +14

Pulsar timing array projects measure the pulse arrival times of millisecond pulsars for the primary purpose of detecting nanohertz-frequency gravitational waves. The measurements i…

The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT IV: Polarisation properties of young, energetic pulsars

M. Serylak, S. Johnston, M. Kramer +16

We present observations of 35 high spin-down energy radio pulsars using the MeerKAT telescope. Polarisation profiles and associated parameters are also presented. We derive the geo…

Precision orbital dynamics from interstellar scintillation arcs for PSR J0437-4715

Daniel J. Reardon, William A. Coles, Matthew Bailes +17

Intensity scintillations of radio pulsars are known to originate from interference between waves scattered by the electron density irregularities of interstellar plasma, often lead…

The MeerKAT Telescope as a Pulsar Facility: System verification and early science results from MeerTime

M. Bailes, A. Jameson, F. Abbate +72

We describe system verification tests and early science results from the pulsar processor (PTUSE) developed for the newly-commissioned 64-dish SARAO MeerKAT radio telescope in Sout…

The UTMOST pulsar timing programme II: Timing noise across the pulsar population

Marcus E. Lower, Matthew Bailes, Ryan M. Shannon +15

While pulsars possess exceptional rotational stability, large scale timing studies have revealed at least two distinct types of irregularities in their rotation: red timing noise a…
