1. Fourier Transforms on Simulated Pulsar Data Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope

2. Basic Pulsar Create series of evens distributed over 500 000s (5.7 days) Period of pulsar P 0 = 0.1 s Number of events ~ 500 (= bright Geminga like pulsar) Calculate the number of turns from the pulsar for the photon n turns n = F 0 * t n phase n = turns n – int (turns n )

3. Fourier Transform Calculate the Fourier Transform power = sqrt ((  sin (2  phase n )) 2 + (  cos (2  phase n )) 2 ) /n

4. Fourier Transform on Differences Calculate the number between two photons (i,j, i<j ) turns n = F 0 * (t j – t i ) where (t j – t i ) < max_diff phase n = turns n – int (turns n ) power = sqrt ((  sin (2  phase n )) 2 + (  cos (2  phase n )) 2 ) /n max_diff = 5000s
