Parkes observations for project P510 semester 2006APRS

We request 9 regularly-spaced epochs to carry out high-precision
timing and polarimetry of PSR~J1906+0746, a new relativistic binary
pulsar discovered in the PALFA survey.
It is currently unclear whether the companion star to this young
144-ms pulsar is a white dwarf or another neutron star. The proposed
observations would measure at least two further post-Keplerian
parameters and determine the mass and inclination of the system.
In addition, they would allow us to measure the significant
profile variations expected due to relativistic spin-orbit coupling.
Given the exciting possibility of a second neutron star in this
system, we shall also use these observations carry out searches for
pulsations from the companion.
