Millisecond Pulsar Observation System at CRL

Abstract

Millisecond pulsars attract attentions as a future reference clock in place of present atomic clocks by reason of their highly stable pulse timing. CRL (Communications Researchh Laboratory) has been developing an observation system to measure the pulse timing of millisecond pulsar precisely, and recently has completed its basic part. By using it, we observed PSR1937 + 21 at 1.5GHz band and got a pulse timing with a precision of 1 Beta(usec)/gamma by 5 days observation.
