Parkes observations for project P1178 semester 2024APRS_01

We are actively developing a new version of the ATNF pulsar catalogue. In the paper describing the new catalogue we wish to take the opportunity to publish important pulsar parameters that have, to-date, not been published. The fundamental property of a pulsar is its pulse period and yet we have identified a large number of pulsars that do not having a measured spin-down rate and hence we do not know their evolutionary state, nor have good positions or knowledge of whether they are in a binary system. We have therefore selected 53 pulsars with the goal of measuring their spin-down rates. During this project we will also develop an automated pulsar-fold-mode online processing pipeline that includes online RFI mitigation. This pipeline will be made available as an ATNF service for other users.

我们正积极开发澳大利亚望远镜国家设施（ATNF）脉冲星（pulsar）目录的新版本。在描述该新目录的论文中，我们希望借此机会发布迄今为止尚未公开的重要脉冲星参数。脉冲星的基本属性是其脉冲周期，但我们发现，大量脉冲星的自转减慢率（spin-down rate）尚未得到测量，因此无法确定其演化状态，也缺乏精确的位置信息，亦不了解它们是否处于双星系统中。为此，我们选取了53颗脉冲星，旨在测量它们的自转减慢率。在该项目期间，我们还将开发一套自动化的脉冲星折叠模式在线处理 pipeline，其中集成了在线射频干扰抑制（RFI mitigation）功能。该 pipeline 将作为ATNF的一项服务向其他用户开放。
