Parkes observations for project P998 semester 2018OCTS_01

We propose a targeted search for pulsars in Terzan 6 - this is a rich globular cluster with a high two-body encounter rate. It was recently identified as a prime candidate for deep searches in a population analysis by Turk & Lorimer. Based on our calculations, we expect to reach a sensitivity of below 10 uJy in a full transit of the cluster which will be sufficient to discover several new pulsars. Like Terzan 5, this cluster is expected to contain a variety of interesting millisecond and binary pulsars.
