MeerKAT Flux density monitoring Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing

Data set associated with Gitika et al 2023 titled: Flux density monitoring of 89 millisecond pulsars with MeerKAT. For each MSP, we have included PSRFIT files of pulsar observations which are fully time and polarization averaged and the frequency channels are averaged into 8 sub-bands. We have provided the mean, median flux densities, standard deviations and modulation indices at 8 different frequency sub-bands for all 89 millisecond pulsars in a csv file format. Spectral indices and pulsar parameters such as period, global coordinates and DM are also included in the data set. The data set is also available in the MeerTime pulsar portal pulsars.org.au. The columns in the csv data table are as follows: name : Pulsar name (J2000) P0, P1 : pulse period and period derivative in (s) and (s/s), respectively gl,gb : Galactic longitude and latitude nobs : Number of observations m[0-7] : median flux density f[0-7] : mean flux density fe[0-7] : error in mean flux density s[0-7] : standard deviation of flux density r[0-7] : modulation index of flux density re[0-7] : error in modulation index maxmed[0-7] : Ratio of maximum measured flux density to median flux density index : spectral index of pulsar ind_err : error in spectral index s1400 : the flux density at 1400 MHz from a power law fit to the flux density per band dm : Dispersion measure of the pulsar and the 8 different frequency sub-bands are centred at 944.4, 1041.1, 1133.5, 1231.3, 1333.1, 1429.0, 1521.3, 1625.2 MHz.
