A VLA Survey for Radio Pulsars in the Galactic Center
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
A radio pulsar in the Galactic center will suffer 350 seconds of pulse broadening. An imaging search for compact sources is far less desensitized by angular broadening than a periodicity search is affected by pulse broadening. We have conducted an imaging survey of the GC using the VLA and have detected approximately 200 sources. Six compact, steep-spectrum sources have been identified; additional compact sources with no spectral information have also been identified. Additional observations are in progress.
