Searching for the Radio Counterpart of a new Gamma-ray pulsar

The launch of the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST) has opened a new avenue on the study of pulsars. Until now, the role of Arecibo has been to time precisely some young, energetic radio pulsars that were suspected of having gamma-ray pulsations (P2337,P2441). With this proposal, we are opening a new role for the Arecibo/Fermi symbiosis: to search deeply for radio counterparts of a new gamma-ray pulsar MGRO J1908+06. The expected scientific gains are discussed below.
