Brief description

We propose timing observations of southern double neutron star (DNS) systems to obtain precise estimates
of the component masses and thus increase the statistics of neutron star mass distribution. The improved
sensitivity of the Ultra Wideband Low (UWL) receiver will provide a 3X increase in the precision of the time
of arrivals (ToAs) of the pulses compared to the multibeam data. This has the potential to perform quick
measurements of masses for a number of binary systems in the next 1-2 years. We will also use MeerKAT
observations at crucial orbital phases to increase our chances of mass measurements. Increase in the number
of measured NS masses has significant implications for understanding NS internal structure and for stellar
and binary evolution physics.
