The Brightest Pulses in the Universe: Multifrequency Observations of the Crab Pulsar’s Giant Pulses

We analyze the Crab pulsar at 10 frequencies from 0.43 to 8.8 GHz using data obtained at the Arecibo Observatory and report the spectral dependence of all pulse components and the rate of occurrence of large-amplitude "giant" pulses. Giant pulses occur only in the main and interpulse components that are …
