Parkes observations for project P887 semester 2015APRS_BPSR_01

Searches for radio pulsations from Fermi sources have been astonishingly fruitful, both in discovering new pulsars and in probing the physics of high-energy emission. We propose observations of members of two promising Fermi source classes: (1) candidate enshrouded millisecond pulsars (2) new "blind search" gamma-ray pulsars. The former are fascinating systems in which the wind of an energetic recycled millisecond pulsar is disintegrating its companion; detecting pulsations turns them into laboratories for this process. The latter are pulsars recently discovered in computational tour de force trawls of the Fermi data. Radio pulsations greatly add to the information we can obtain; conversely, deep upper limits constrain emission models.
