Late last year, I released the high-level observing software used for the UTMOST pulsar timing programme I paper through the Astrophysics Source Code Library. It contains monitoring and scheduling tools that we developed as part of the UTMOST project for the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope (MOST), including the fully-autonomous dynamic …
more ...Before the bustle leading up to the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, my UTMOST pulsar timing programme paper got accepted for publication in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. The publication can be accessed online via the Astrophysics Data System. In that paper, we report updated …
more ...A collaborative paper (Meyers et al.) reporting on the spectral properties of the highly intermittent pulsar J1107-5907 at radio frequencies has recently been accepted for publication.
The publication presents the analysis of simultaneous radio observations of the pulsar with the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) and the refurbished Molonglo Synthesis Radio …
more ...We have discovered two fast radio bursts (FRBs) in short succession as part of the ongoing search programme at the Molonglo Observatory Radio Telescope. They are FRB181016 and FRB181017, respectively. We summarise their detection UTCs, their right-ascensions, their declinations (J2000) and the dispersion measures (DMs) that maximise the signal-to-noise ratios …
more ...We have detected another pulsar glitch at the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Radio Telescope in Australia, where we are observing more than 400 radio pulsars regularly, mainly with very high cadence. This one happened in the pulsar J1709-4429 and is by far the smallest one ever reported in this pulsar. The …
more ...We have detected a new Fast Radio Burst (FRB) in real time at the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Radio Telescope in Australia. In total, that makes it the 6th FRB discovered as part of the UTMOST project. We encourage follow-up observations at all wavelengths. The relevant details can be found in …
more ...We crossed the 10,000 pulsar observations mark using the tied-array beam with the UTMOST system at the refurbished Molonglo radio telescope last night. This is a big milestone for the pulsar timing project.
Hurray!
