MeerTRAP in the era of multi-messenger astrophysics
Kaustubh Rajwade, Benjamin Stappers, Christopher Williams +9
Real-time detections of transients and rapid multi-wavelength follow-up are at the core of modern multi-messenger astrophysics. MeerTRAP is one such instrument that has been deploy…
Real-time triggering capabilities for Fast Radio Bursts at the MeerKAT telescope
F. Jankowski, M. Berezina, B. W. Stappers +9
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are bright enigmatic radio pulses of roughly millisecond duration that come from extragalactic distances. As part of the MeerTRAP project, we use the MeerK…
Revisiting profile instability of J1022+1001
Prajwal V. Padmanabh, Ewan D. Barr, David J. Champion +4
Millisecond pulsars in timing arrays can act as probes for gravitational wave detection and improving the solar system ephemerides among several other applications. However, the st…
The MeerKAT Telescope as a Pulsar Facility: System verification and early science results from MeerTime
M. Bailes, A. Jameson, F. Abbate +72
We describe system verification tests and early science results from the pulsar processor (PTUSE) developed for the newly-commissioned 64-dish SARAO MeerKAT radio telescope in Sout…
Optimal periodicity searching: Revisiting the Fast Folding Algorithm for large-scale pulsar surveys
V. Morello, E. D. Barr, B. W. Stappers +2
The Fast Folding Algorithm (FFA) is a phase-coherent search technique for periodic signals. It has rarely been used in radio pulsar searches, having been historically supplanted by…
The UTMOST Survey for Magnetars, Intermittent pulsars, RRATs and FRBs I: System description and overview
V. Venkatraman Krishnan, C. Flynn, W. Farah +22
We describe the ongoing `Survey for Magnetars, Intermittent pulsars, Rotating radio transients and Fast radio bursts' (SMIRF), performed using the newly refurbished UTMOST telescop…
