Understanding Pulsar Wind Nebulae with the SKA

Joseph D. Gelfand, C. -Y. Ng, B. Posselt +9

Produced by the interaction between the ``pulsar wind'' powered by the rotational energy of a neutron star and its surroundings, the study of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) provides vi…

Dispersion measure variability for 36 millisecond pulsars at 150MHz with LOFAR

J. Y. Donner, J. P. W. Verbiest, C. Tiburzi +19

Radio pulses from pulsars are affected by plasma dispersion, which results in a frequency-dependent propagation delay. Variations in the magnitude of this effect lead to an additio…

Study of spider pulsar binary eclipses and discovery of an eclipse mechanism transition

E. J. Polzin, R. P. Breton, B. Bhattacharyya +3

We present a comparative study of the low-frequency eclipses of spider (compact, irradiating binary) PSRs B1957+20 and J1816+4510. Combining these data with those of three other ec…

Limits on Absorption from a 332-MHz survey for Fast Radio Bursts

K. M. Rajwade, M. B. Mickaliger, B. W. Stappers +4

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are bright, extragalactic radio pulses whose origins are still unknown. Until recently, most FRBs have been detected at frequencies greater than 1 GHz with…

Long Term Variability of a Black Widow's Eclipses -- A Decade of PSR J20510827

E. J. Polzin, R. P. Breton, B. W. Stappers +5

In this paper we report on years of observations of PSR J20510827, at radio frequencies in the range 110--4032 MHz. We investigate the eclipse phenomena of this black w…

Constraining Redshifts of Unlocalised Fast Radio Bursts

C. R. H. Walker, Y. -Z. Ma, R. P. Breton

The population of fast radio bursts (FRBs) will continue to diverge into two groups depending on their method of discovery: those which can be localised, and those which cannot. Ev…

Orbital and superorbital variability of LS I +61 303 at low radio frequencies with GMRT and LOFAR

B. Marcote, M. Ribó, J. M. Paredes +23

LS I +61 303 is a gamma-ray binary that exhibits an outburst at GHz frequencies each orbital cycle of 26.5 d and a superorbital modulation with a period of 4.6…

Wide-Band, Low-Frequency Pulse Profiles of 100 Radio Pulsars with LOFAR

M. Pilia, J. W. T. Hessels, B. W. Stappers +84

LOFAR offers the unique capability of observing pulsars across the 10-240 MHz frequency range with a fractional bandwidth of roughly 50%. This spectral range is well-suited for stu…

Fast Transients at Cosmological Distances with the SKA

J. -P. Macquart, E. Keane, K. Grainge +14

Impulsive radio bursts that are detectable across cosmological distances constitute extremely powerful probes of the ionized Inter-Galactic Medium (IGM), intergalactic magnetic fie…

Understanding pulsar magnetospheres with the SKA

A. Karastergiou, S. Johnston, N. Andersson +14

The SKA will discover tens of thousands of pulsars and provide unprecedented data quality on these, as well as the currently known population, due to its unrivalled sensitivity. He…
