Parkes observations for project P574 semester 2009APRS

We request time to observe 160 pulsars on a regular basis in
order to provide accurate ephemerides necessary for the detection
of gamma-ray pulsars with the Fermi and AGILE satellites.
The main science goals are to increase the number
of known gamma-ray pulsars (both radio loud and radio quiet), to determine
accurate pulse profiles, to characterise their high energy spectra and
phase resolved spectroscopy of the brightest pulsars.
In the radio, the observations will also allow us to find glitches,
characterise timing noise, investigate dispersion and rotation measure
variability and enhance our knowledge of single pulse phenomenology.
We expect this program to continue for the ~5 years of the
Fermi and AGILE missions.
