Pulsars with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder
I. H. Stairs, M. J. Keith, Z. Arzoumanian +33
The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) is a 36-element array with a 30-square-degree field of view being built at the proposed SKA site in Western Australia. We a…
DSPSR: Digital Signal Processing Software for Pulsar Astronomy
W. van Straten, M. Bailes
DSPSR is a high-performance, open-source, object-oriented, digital signal processing software library and application suite for use in radio pulsar astronomy. Written primarily in…
Measuring the mass of solar system planets using pulsar timing
D. J. Champion, G. B. Hobbs, R. N. Manchester +19
High-precision pulsar timing relies on a solar-system ephemeris in order to convert times of arrival (TOAs) of pulses measured at an observatory to the solar system barycenter. Any…
A Radio-loud Magnetar in X-ray Quiescence
Lina Levin, Matthew Bailes, Samuel Bates +12
As part of a survey for radio pulsars with the Parkes 64-m telescope we have discovered PSR J1622-4950, a pulsar with a 4.3-s rotation period. Follow-up observations show that the…
The High Time Resolution Universe Pulsar Survey I: System configuration and initial discoveries
M. J. Keith, A. Jameson, W. van Straten +13
We have embarked on a survey for pulsars and fast transients using the 13-beam Multibeam receiver on the Parkes radio telescope. Installation of a digital backend allows us to reco…
The Sensitivity of the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array to Individual Sources of Gravitational Waves
D. R. B. Yardley, G. B. Hobbs, F. A. Jenet +11
We present the sensitivity of the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array to gravitational waves emitted by individual super-massive black-hole binary systems in the early phases of coalescing…
Giant pulses from the Crab pulsar: A wide-band study
R. Karuppusamy, B. W. Stappers, W. van Straten
The Crab pulsar is well-known for its anomalous giant radio pulse emission. Past studies have concentrated only on the very bright pulses or were insensitive to the faint end of th…
Observations and Modelling of Relativistic Spin Precession in PSR J1141-6545
R. N. Manchester, M. Kramer, I. H. Stairs +10
Observations of the binary pulsar PSR J1141-6545 using the Parkes radio telescope over 9.3 years show clear time-variations in pulse width, shape and polarization. We interpret the…
