Detection of strong scattering close to the eclipse region of PSR B1957+20

J. T. Bai, S. Dai, Q. J. Zhi +14

We present the first measurement of pulse scattering close to the eclipse region of PSR B1957+20, which is in a compact binary system with a low-mass star. We measured pulse scatte…

A pulsar-based timescale from the International Pulsar Timing Array

G. Hobbs, L. Guo, R. N. Caballero +56

We have constructed a new timescale, TT(IPTA16), based on observations of radio pulsars presented in the first data release from the International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA). We us…

From Spin Noise to Systematics: Stochastic Processes in the First International Pulsar Timing Array Data Release

L. Lentati, R. M. Shannon, W. A. Coles +80

We analyse the stochastic properties of the 49 pulsars that comprise the first International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA) data release. We use Bayesian methodology, performing model…

Searching for gravitational wave memory bursts with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array

J. B. Wang, G. Hobbs, W. Coles +17

Anisotropic bursts of gravitational radiation produced by events such as super-massive black hole mergers leave permanent imprints on space. Such gravitational wave "memory" (GWM)…

Interplanetary spacecraft navigation using pulsars

X. P. Deng, G. Hobbs, X. P. You +10

We demonstrate how observations of pulsars can be used to help navigate a spacecraft travelling in the solar system. We make use of archival observations of millisecond pulsars fro…

Optimal Interpolation and Prediction in Pulsar Timing

X. P. Deng, W. Coles, G. Hobbs +4

For pulsar projects it is often necessary to predict the pulse phase in advance, for example, when preparing for new observations. Interpolation of the pulse phase between existing…
