A Framework for Assessing the Performance of Pulsar Search Pipelines

E. van Heerden, A. Karastergiou, S. J. Roberts

In this paper, we present a framework for assessing the effect of non-stationary Gaussian noise and radio frequency interference (RFI) on the signal to noise ratio, the number of f…

Simultaneous radio and X-ray observations of PSR B0611+22

Kaustubh Rajwade, Andrew Seymour, Duncan R Lorimer +4

We report results from simultaneous radio and X-ray observations of PSR B0611+22 which is known to exhibit bursting in its single-pulse emission. The pulse phase of the bursts vary…

The frequency dependence of scattering imprints on pulsar observations

Marisa Geyer, Aris Karastergiou

Observations of pulsars across the radio spectrum are revealing a dependence of the characteristic scattering time () on frequency, which is more complex than the simple power l…

A large light-mass component of cosmic rays at 10^{17} - 10^{17.5} eV from radio observations

S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, H. Falcke +101

Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles found in nature. Measurements of the mass composition of cosmic rays between 10^{17} eV and 10^{18} eV are essential to understand whet…
