Discovery of Two High-Magnetic-Field Radio Pulsars
V. M. Kaspi, F. Camilo, A. G. Lyne +5
We report the discovery of two isolated radio pulsars having the largest inferred surface dipole magnetic fields yet seen in the population: 4.1e10^13 G and 5.5e10^13 G. These puls…
The Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey: preliminary results
N. D'Amico, A. G. Lyne, R. N. Manchester +7
A high-frequency survey of the Galactic plane for radio pulsars is in progress, using the multibeam receiver on the 64-m Parkes radiotelescope. We describe the survey motivations,…
Studying pulsars with the SKA and other new facilities
J. F. Bell
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is a proposed next generation radio telescope. Between now and 2005 this project is in a technology development and prototyping phase, with constru…
The Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey Data Release
J. Bell, R. Manchester, F. Crawford +10
The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey began in 1997 and is now about 50% complete. It has discovered more than 400 new pulsars so far, including a number of young, high magnetic field…
Timing the Parkes Multibeam Pulsars
R. N. Manchester, A. G. Lyne, F. Camilo +6
Measurement of accurate positions, pulse periods and period derivatives is an essential follow-up to any pulsar survey. The procedures being used to obtain timing parameters for th…
A Search for Sub-millisecond Pulsations in Unidentified FIRST and NVSS Radio Sources
F. Crawford, V. M. Kaspi, J. F. Bell
We have searched 92 unidentified sources from the FIRST and NVSS radio catalogs for pulsations at 610 MHz. The selected sources are bright, have no identifications, are unresolved…
