Arecibo Pulsar Survey Using ALFA: Probing Radio Pulsar Intermittency and Transients

J. S. Deneva, J. M. Cordes, M. A. McLaughlin +23

We present radio transient search algorithms, results, and statistics from the ongoing Arecibo Pulsar ALFA (PALFA) Survey of the Galactic plane. We have discovered seven objects by…

PSR J1856+0245: Arecibo Discovery of a Young, Energetic Pulsar Coincident with the TeV Gamma-ray Source HESS J1857+026

J. W. T. Hessels, D. J. Nice, B. M. Gaensler +21

We present the discovery of the Vela-like radio pulsar J1856+0245 in the Arecibo PALFA survey. PSR J1856+0245 has a spin period of 81ms, a characteristic age of 21kyr, and a spin-d…

An Eccentric Binary Millisecond Pulsar in the Galactic Plane

D. J. Champion, S. M. Ransom, P. Lazarus +28

Binary pulsar systems are superb probes of stellar and binary evolution and the physics of extreme environments. In a survey with the Arecibo telescope, we have found PSR J1903+032…

Timing and Precession of the Young, Relativistic Binary Pulsar PSR J1906+0746

L. E. Kasian

We present an updated timing solution and an analysis of the profile evolution - including precession and beam shape - of the young, relativistic binary pulsar J1906+0746. The 144-…

Arecibo and the ALFA Pulsar Survey

J. van Leeuwen, J. M. Cordes, D. R. Lorimer +34

The recently started Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) pulsar survey aims to find ~1000 new pulsars. Due to its high time and frequency resolution the survey is especially sensitive…

The young, highly relativistic binary pulsar J1906+0746

D. R. Lorimer, I. H. Stairs, P. C. C. Freire +33

We report the discovery of PSR J1906+0746, a young 144-ms pulsar in a highly relativistic 3.98-hr orbit with an eccentricity of 0.085 and expected gravitational wave coalescence ti…
