The Northern High Time Resolution Universe pulsar survey: II. Single-pulse search set-up and simulations
L. J. M. Houben, H. Falcke, L. G. Spitler +5
The High Time Resolution Universe (HTRU) survey is an all-sky survey looking for pulsars and other radio transients. A new single-pulse (SP) search pipeline is presented, tailored…
Discovery of 26 new Galactic radio transients by MeerTRAP
James Dennis Turner, Ben W. Stappers, Jun Tian +10
Radio searches for single pulses provide the opportunity to discover one-off events, fast transients and some pulsars that might otherwise be missed by conventional periodicity sea…
A study of two FRBs with low polarization fractions localized with the MeerTRAP transient buffer system
K. M. Rajwade, L. N. Driessen, E. D. Barr +19
Localisation of fast radio bursts (FRBs) to arcsecond and sub-arcsecond precision maximizes their potential as cosmological probes. To that end, FRB detection instruments are deplo…
The MPIfR-MeerKAT Galactic Plane Survey II. The eccentric double neutron star system PSR J1208-5936 and a neutron star merger rate update
M. Colom i Bernadich, V. Balakrishnan, E. Barr +16
The MMGPS-L is the most sensitive pulsar survey in the Southern Hemisphere. We present a follow-up study of one of these new discoveries, PSR J1208-5936, a 28.71-ms recycled pulsar…
The MPIfR-MeerKAT Galactic Plane survey I -- System setup and early results
P. V. Padmanabh, E. D. Barr, S. S. Sridhar +30
Galactic plane radio surveys play a key role in improving our understanding of a wide range of astrophysical phenomena. Performing such a survey using the latest interferometric te…
A Search for Pulsar Companions Around Low-Mass White Dwarfs
Tilemachos M. Athanasiadis, Marina Berezina, John Antoniadis +4
We report on a search for pulsars at the positions of eight low-mass white dwarfs and one higher-mass white dwarf with the 100-m Effelsberg Radio Telescope. These systems have orbi…
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…
The discovery of two mildly-recycled binary pulsars in the Northern High Time Resolution Universe pulsar survey
M. Berezina, D. J. Champion, P. C. C. Freire +11
We report the discovery and the results of follow-up timing observations of PSR J2045+3633 and PSR J2053+4650, two binary pulsars found in the Northern High Time Resolution Univers…
A Massive Millisecond Pulsar in an Eccentric Binary
E. D. Barr, P. C. C. Freire, M. Kramer +5
The recent discovery of a population of eccentric (e ~ 0.1) millisecond pulsar (MSP) binaries with low-mass white dwarf companions in the Galactic field represents a challenge to e…
A Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxy
E. F. Keane, S. Johnston, S. Bhandari +38
In recent years, millisecond duration radio signals originating from distant galaxies appear to have been discovered in the so-called Fast Radio Bursts. These signals are dispersed…
