Parkes observations for project P789 semester 2017APRS_BPSR_01

Recently there has been great success at Parkes discovering millisecond pulsars (MSPs), a class that includes some of the most interesting and scientifically valuable pulsars known. In the last few years we have discovered more than 40 MSPs though the High Time Resolution Universe Survey (P630) and Fermi searches (P675/P814). Here we propose to carry out precision timing of these sources to fully exploit these discoveries. Additionally, continue to study the most significant of the discoveries from the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey (P268).\r\nTo maximise scientific impact we have combined the most important sources from various previous proposals into this project, reducing total observation time required and easing the burden on the scheduler.

近期，帕克斯望远镜在毫秒脉冲星（millisecond pulsars，简称MSPs）的发现领域取得了重大突破——这类脉冲星包含已知最具研究趣味与科学价值的成员。过去数年中，我们通过高时间分辨率宇宙巡天（High Time Resolution Universe Survey，P630）及费米搜索（Fermi searches，P675/P814）已发现超过40颗MSPs。在此，我们提议对这些源开展精密计时观测，以充分挖掘这些发现的科学潜力。此外，继续研究帕克斯多波束脉冲星巡天（Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey，P268）中最重要的发现成果。
为最大化科学影响力，我们已将以往多个提案中最重要的源整合至本项目，此举可减少所需总观测时间，并减轻调度系统的负担。
