Introduction Project: to analyze data collected by the Green Bank telescope and search for pulsars Goals: Identify known pulsars, RFI, and new pulsars Investigate variations in periods Sort noise from significant data Carly

Harmonics in Motion Known Pulsar Info: Dec: -13:54 RA: 09:44 DM: 12.5 Period: 0.57026 Shane

shane

Radio Frequency Interference (R.F.I) Documented in Rogue Gallery as a power line Period ~ 1198 ms Shane s

Known Pulsar J1610-1322 Comparisons: RA and Dec changed slightly from known pulsar in catalogue ~ no change in DM Gunner

GBT Candidates Never before seen at 800 MHz. Not in ATNF New pulsar, named J2013-06 in new drift scan data Never before seen at 800 MHz. Strong pulse profile against noise. Anna D

2013-0650 Comparison Little period change Much clearer lines. In 2007 it was observed at a frequency of 350 MHz and now it was observed at a frequency of 800 MHz. Little period change Anna

GBT Candidates Strong vertical lines in the Sub-band Plot. Low probability of noise. Definitely not a known pulsar. Erin

GBT Comparison Investigation looks more like RFI than 2007 data We were very disappointed. No period change Erin

Conclusions Certainties Uncertainties/Questions About 30 plots with extremely close DM values RFI is present in almost half of the plots examined (47%) Saw 3 known pulsars Uncertainties/Questions Could harmonics be different pulsars? Why is there a difference when the pulsar was observed at 350 MHz and 800 MHz? What can we learn about the pulsar? Carly
