The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT II: observing strategy for pulsar monitoring with subarrays

X. Song, P. Weltevrede, M. J. Keith +15

The Thousand Pulsar Array (TPA) project currently monitors about 500 pulsars with the sensitive MeerKAT radio telescope by using subarrays to observe multiple sources simultaneousl…

Searching for gravitational wave bursts from cosmic string cusps with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array

N. Yonemaru, S. Kuroyanagi, G. Hobbs +12

Cosmic strings are potential gravitational wave (GW) sources that can be probed by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs). In this work we develop a detection algorithm for a GW burst from a…

Identifying and mitigating noise sources in precision pulsar timing data sets

Boris Goncharov, D. J. Reardon, R. M. Shannon +14

Pulsar timing array projects measure the pulse arrival times of millisecond pulsars for the primary purpose of detecting nanohertz-frequency gravitational waves. The measurements i…

The Thousand-Pulsar-Array programme on MeerKAT IV: Polarisation properties of young, energetic pulsars

M. Serylak, S. Johnston, M. Kramer +16

We present observations of 35 high spin-down energy radio pulsars using the MeerKAT telescope. Polarisation profiles and associated parameters are also presented. We derive the geo…

Neutron Star Extreme Matter Observatory: A kilohertz-band gravitational-wave detector in the global network

K. Ackley, V. B. Adya, P. Agrawal +160

Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influen…

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…
