Brief description
We request time to observe 260 pulsars on a regular basis to provide the accurate ephemerides necessary for the detection and characterisation of gamma-ray pulsars with the Fermi satellite. The primary science goals are to increase the number of known gamma-ray pulsars (both radio loud and radio quiet), to determine accurate pulse profiles, and to characterise their high energy (phase-resolved) spectra. In the radio, the observations will also allow us to investigate: neutron stars and pulsar emission via detecting glitches and determining pulse timing parameters; and the ISM via measuring and monitoring dispersion measures, Faraday rotation measures, and scintillation. To date, we are (co-)authors on 75 papers arising from the collaboration and P574 data. The data have contributed to the PhD theses of students from Bordeaux, Manchester, Oxford, Stanford, and Swinburne.Available: 2019-12-03
