Arecibo and the ALFA Pulsar Survey
Arecibo and the ALFA Pulsar Survey
The recently started Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) pulsar survey aims to find ∼1000 new pulsars. Due to its high time and frequency resolution the survey is especially sensitive to millisecond pulsars, which have the potential to test gravitational theories, detect gravitational waves and probe the neutron-star equation of state. …
