Timing observations of three Galactic millisecond pulsars

D. R. Lorimer, A. M. Kawash, P. C. C. Freire +16

We report observed and derived timing parameters for three millisecond pulsars (MSPs) from observations collected with the Parkes 64-m telescope, Murriyang. The pulsars were found…

Eight new millisecond pulsars from the first MeerKAT globular cluster census

A. Ridolfi, T. Gautam, P. C. C. Freire +24

We have used the central 44 antennas of the new 64-dish MeerKAT radio telescope array to conduct a deep search for new pulsars in the core of nine globular clusters. This has led t…
