Radio and gamma-ray timing of TRAPUM L-band Fermi pulsar survey discoveries

M. Burgay, L. Nieder, C. J. Clark +18

This paper presents the results of a joint radio and gamma-ray timing campaign on the nine millisecond pulsars (MSPs) discovered as part of the L-band targeted survey of Fermi-LAT…

MeerKAT observations of pair-plasma induced birefringence in the double pulsar eclipses

M. E. Lower, M. Kramer, S. Johnston +10

PSR J07373039A/B is unique among double neutron star systems. Its near-perfect edge-on orbit causes the fast spinning pulsar A to be eclipsed by the magnetic field of the slow s…

TRAPUM pulsar and transient search in the Sextans A and B galaxies and discovery of background FRB 20210924D

E. Carli, L. Levin, B. W. Stappers +10

The Small and Large Magellanic Clouds are the only galaxies outside our own in which radio pulsars have been discovered to date. The sensitivity of the MeerKAT radio interferometer…

Searching for Pulsars, Magnetars, and Fast Radio Bursts in the Sculptor Galaxy using MeerKAT

H. Hurter, C. Venter, L. Levin +10

The Sculptor Galaxy (NGC 253), located in the Southern Hemisphere, far off the Galactic Plane, has a relatively high star-formation rate of about 7 M yr and hosts…

Triple trouble with PSR J1618-3921: Mass measurements and orbital dynamics of an eccentric millisecond pulsar

K. Grunthal, V. Venkatraman Krishnan, P. C. C. Freire +11

PSR J1618-3921 is one of five known millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in eccentric orbits (eMPSs) located in the Galactic plane, whose formation is poorly understood. Earlier studies of t…

The TRAPUM Large Magellanic Cloud pulsar survey with MeerKAT I: Survey setup and first seven pulsar discoveries

V. Prayag, L. Levin, M. Geyer +15

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) presents a unique environment for pulsar population studies due to its distinct star formation characteristics and proximity to the Milky Way. As p…
