Parkes observations for project P1054 semester 2026APRS_08

With this proposal we ask time to continue our timing follow-up campaign of pulsars discovered with the MeerKAT telescope. Fiftythree sources have been discovered in targeted observations of Fermi unidentified point sources, two towards Supernova Remnants, 27 in the Magellanic Clouds, 109 in Globular Clusters and 96 in a survey of the Galactic plane. A large fraction of the new discoveries are recycled pulsars (including a few relativistic systems, a pulsar with a planetary companion and several 'spider' binaries), or young pulsars. Timing observations have an essential role in exploiting the full potential of any pulsar discovery, allowing for the precise measurement of rotational, astrometric and orbital parameters which, in turn, give us powerful tools to improve our understanding of the physics in extreme environments as well as of the population of neutron stars as a whole. The UWL receiver of the Parkes telescope is a sensitive, versatile instrument that is allowing us to successfully time these new sources, in the bright-end of TRAPUM discoveries.
