We discovered an ultra-slow spinning neutron star (~76 second period) that emits at radio frequencies with the MeerTRAP instrument at the MeerKAT telescope. The work was done in collaboration with many and led by Dr Manisha Caleb from MeerTRAP and Dr Ian Heywood from ThunderKAT. The paper was recently accepted …
more ...Our paper on the magnetar J1935+2154 (led by Ben Stappers) recently got accepted for publication in the MNRAS journal and is now on the arXiv. We place strict upper limits on its radio and optical emission shortly after its Fast Radio Burst-like outburst in April to June 2020, derived …
more ...I am part of a collaborative paper in which we report on the timing and spectral properties of the new magnetar Swift J1818.0-1607 in the first month or so after it became visible at radio frequencies.
The observations were performed with the 100-m Effelsberg telescope in Germany, telescopes at …
