P2189 Date Received: 2005­Nov­14 08:08:27 Technical Page Proposal Type: Urgent General Category: Pulsars Observation Category: Total Time Requested: 10 hours Hours Proposal Title: 50 MHz scintillation observations of several nearby pulsars ABSTRACT: We propose to observe three pulsars at 50 MHz using baseband recording techniques. ... It is only by observing at low frequencies (less than approx = 100 MHz) that it is possible to see the scintillation structure necessary for this analysis. ...

... Up: Description of program searchdup Previous: Program use . Input records are ordered per date of observation, and the list of known (observed) sources is cleared. Each record is compared in position to all the known sources. If the sky distance is less or equal to the specified one, the record is added to the list of observations for that source. If no known sources are within the specified radius, a new source is created, with the coordinates of the observation record. ...
