Detection of the relativistic Shapiro delay in a highly inclined millisecond pulsar binary PSR J10124235

T. Gautam, P. C. C. Freire, J. Wu +5

PSR J10124235 is a 3.1ms pulsar in a wide binary (37.9 days) with a white dwarf companion. We detect, for the first time, a strong relativistic Shapiro delay signature in PSR J1…

Four pulsar discoveries in NGC 6624 by TRAPUM using MeerKAT

F. Abbate, A. Ridolfi, E. D. Barr +19

We report 4 new pulsars discovered in the core-collapsed globular cluster (GC) NGC 6624 by the TRAPUM Large Survey Project with the MeerKAT telescope. All of the new pulsars found…

Eight new millisecond pulsars from the first MeerKAT globular cluster census

A. Ridolfi, T. Gautam, P. C. C. Freire +24

We have used the central 44 antennas of the new 64-dish MeerKAT radio telescope array to conduct a deep search for new pulsars in the core of nine globular clusters. This has led t…

The Relativistic Binary Programme on MeerKAT: Science objectives and first results

M. Kramer, I. H. Stairs, V. Venkatraman Krishnan +35

We describe the ongoing Relativistic Binary programme (RelBin), a part of the MeerTime large survey project with the MeerKAT radio telescope. RelBin is primarily focused on observa…
