Searching for Millisecond Pulsars in Low-Latitude Fermi Unidentified Sources

We propose to search for pulsars in fourteen Fermi unidentified sources close to the Galactic plane (|b|<4 degrees). Such searches have been extremely successful at high Galactic latitudes and low frequencies (327 - 820 MHz). The denser ionized gas environment in the Galactic plane necessitates using higher frequencies in order to minimize scattering and dispersion broadening. We plan to search these sources at 1400 MHz. The benefits of potential discoveries include tests of theories of gravity via timing of binary pulsars, facilitating gravitational wave detection through expanding the set of ob jects included in pulsar timing arrays, and studying the pulsar emission mechanism at various energies.
