Parkes observations for project P574 semester 2018APRS_05
收藏资源简介:
We request time to observe 260 pulsars on a regular basis in order to provide the accurate ephemerides necessary for the detection and characterisation of gamma-ray pulsars with the Fermi satellite. 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, and to characterise their high energy (phase-resolved) spectra. 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. To date, we\r\nare (co-)authors on 70 papers arising from the collaboration and P574 data. The data have contributed to the PhD theses of students from Bordeaux, Stanford, Swinburne and Oxford.
我们申请对260颗脉冲星开展定期观测,以期为利用费米卫星(Fermi)探测与表征γ射线脉冲星(gamma-ray pulsars)提供所需的精确脉冲星历表(ephemerides)。本项目的核心科学目标包括:扩充已知γ射线脉冲星的数量(涵盖射电明亮型与射电宁静型两类脉冲星)、获取精确的脉冲轮廓(pulse profiles),并表征其高能量(相位分辨)能谱。在射电波段的观测还将助力我们发现脉冲星自转突跳(glitch)、表征计时噪声特性、研究射电色散与旋转量(rotation measure)的变化规律,并加深对单脉冲现象学(single pulse phenomenology)的认知。截至目前,我们作为(共同)作者参与了本合作项目及P574数据集相关的70篇学术论文的研究工作;上述数据集还支撑了波尔多大学(Bordeaux)、斯坦福大学(Stanford)、斯威本科技大学(Swinburne)以及牛津大学(Oxford)的多名学生完成其博士学位论文。
