1 The Hunt for New Pulsars with the Green Bank Telescope Ryan Lynch Postdoctoral Fellow McGill University
2 What we'll talk about... Two most recent large-area GBT pulsar surveys the 350 MHz Drift Scan Survey and the Green Bank North Celestial Cap Survey Primary science goals Progress so far Highlights Future work A brief overview of some targeted pulsar searches
3 Anne Archibald (McGill) Joeri van Leeuwen (ASTRON) Aaron Berndsen (UBC) Erik Madsen (UBC) Jason Boyles (WVU) Maura McLaughlin (WVU) Fernando Cardoso (WVU) Christie McPhee (UBC) Angus Cherry (UBC) Chris Pankow (UWM) Jason Hessels (ASTRON) Tim Pennucci (UVA) Rick Jenet (UTB) Scott Ransom (NRAO) David Kaplan (UWM) Mallory Roberts (Eureka) Vicky Kaspi (McGill) Xavier Siemens (UWM) Chen Karako (McGill) Ingrid Stairs (UBC) Vlad Kondratiev (ASTRON) Kevin Stovall (UTB) Duncan Lorimer (WVU) ARCC (UTB/UWM)
4 First, some motivation We keep finding cool new pulsars whenever we look, so keep looking! High precision MSPs for PTAs Gravitational laboratories (Kramer et al. 2006; Freire et al. 2012) Massive pulsars (e.g. Demorest et al. 2010) Radio magnetars (Camilo et al. 2006,2007; Levin et al. 2010) And many, many more... Different surveys can be complementary
5 The importance of the GBT Largest fully steerable telescope in the world Can see parts of the sky that Arecibo and Parkes can't Relatively little RFI Several excellent low-noise receivers State-of-the art pulsar back-end Image credits: Wikipedia & NRAO
6 The GBT Drift Scan survey Primary science goal: find high precision MSPs and exotic pulsars (young pulsars, RRATs, etc) Completed between May and August 2007 during GBT track repair shutdown Access to -7.7 < δ < 38.4 and < δ < 38.4 Image credit: NRAO
7 The GBT Drift Scan survey Centered at 350 MHz with 50 MHz bandwidth Data analyzed in 140-s sections with 50% overlap sq deg, totaling 1491 hrs of observing time and 134 TB Most data recorded with 2048 channels 2800 sq deg reserved for Pulsar Search Collaboratory (Rosen et al. 2010) Data analysis now complete: 31 new pulsars including 7 MSPs (P < 10 ms)
8 The GBT Drift Scan survey
9 GBT Drift Scan Highlights J is a 39-ms recycled pulsars in a 2.4-hr orbit (Lynch et al. in prep) Spectroscopic follow-up of the companion reveals a 0.17 Msun white dwarf (Antoniadis et al. in prep) Predicted to be a strong emitter of dipolar GWs by scalar-tensor theories of gravity Ongoing Arecibo timing will provide one of the most stringent tests ever of these alternative gravity theories (Antoniadis et al.)
10 J Pb-dot prediction Courtesy of N. Wex
11 GBT Drift Scan Highlights J is a 2.7-ms MSP in a hierarchical triple (Ransom et al. in prep) Inner companion is a WD on 1.6 day orbit Outer companion on a 327 day orbit Already is proving to be a fantastic test-bed for 3body dynamical theory Courtesy of S. Ransom
12 GBT Drift Scan Highlights J is a 2.7-ms MSP in a hierarchical triple (Ransom et al. in prep) Inner companion is a WD on 1.6 day orbit Outer companion on a 327 day orbit Already is proving to be a fantastic test-bed for 3body dynamical theory Courtesy of S. Ransom
13 GBT Drift Scan Highlights J (Boyles et al. in prep) is a 33-ms recycled pulsar with a > 1.1 Msun companion Look for Shapiro delay measurement results soon J and J are 2 MSPs already included in NANOGrav and IPTA timing J (Archibald et al. 2009): The missing link pulsar 34 RRAT candidates discovered by Chen Karako (see tomorrow's talk)
14 The GBNCC survey Science goals similar to Drift Scan, but with particular emphasis on high declinations More wide-separation baselines for pulsar timing arrays Probe pulsar and RRAT populations in less well studied part of the Galaxy Data taking began in 2009 and is ongoing Stage I covered δ > 38 and is now complete Stage II pushing south and will cover entire sky visible from the GBT
15 The GBNCC survey Centered at 350 MHz using newer GUPPI back-end 100 MHz bandwidth with 4096 channels 120-s pointed integrations Will use 2030 hrs and amass ~360 TB when completed Early processing by Kevin Stovall at UTB Most processing now at McGill using 2048 cores on the Guillimin supercomputer Preliminary results: 50 new pulsars including 9 MSPs
16 The GBNCC survey
17 J J P = 2.86 ms P = 8.85 ms DM = 11.1 pc/cc DM = 18.2 pc/cc J P = 2.88 ms DM = 15 pc/cc J J P = 4.2 ms P = 3.2 ms DM = 11.2 pc/cc DM = 7.1 pc/cc J P = 2.0 ms DM = 31 pc/cc Included in NANOGrav & IPTA
18 GBNCC Highlights J is a binary MSP in an 8.7-hr orbit around a > 0.16 Msun companion (Kaplan et al. 2012) Detected with Fermi and has UV/optical counterpart Kaplan et al. (2012)
19 GBNCC Highlights J is a 76-ms pulsars with b=1 (possible young pulsar?) J is a 6.8-s pulsar Only 6 radio pulsars with longer periods (3 are RRATs) J is a 2.9-ms MSP in a 1.5 hr orbit Lower limit on companion's density is 2x diamond planet (Bailes et al. 2012)
20 GBNCC Highlights 4 intermediate-period pulsars with b > 10 (possible relativistic binaries?) Several pulsars and MSPs with DM-distances < 1 kpc promising targets for multi-wavelength follow-up
21
22 Targeted surveys: Globular Clusters The GBT has been amazing for finding GC pulsars The most promising GCs have been deeply searched as part of several projects (Ransom et al. 2005; Freire et al. 2008; Lynch et al. 2011a/b, 2012, Stairs et al. In prep) These included the fastest rotator (Hessels et al. 2006), potentially super-massive pulsars (Freire et al. 2008), and a potential double neutron star system (Lynch et al. 2012)
23 Targeted Surveys: Globular Clusters Courtesy of S. Ransom
24 Targeted surveys: Fermi sources Fermi has revolutionized the search for field MSPs 45 MSPs have been discovered by targeting bright, unidentified Fermi sources (see Ray et al. 2012) 26 of these have been discovered using the GBT
25 Summary and Conclusions There are still lots of really cool pulsars to discover! Pulsar-BH binary, planet systems, bridges between magnetars and pulsars, RRATs, massive pulsars... The GBT is one of the best instruments in the world for finding new pulsars The most recent GBT surveys have combined to discover 81 new pulsars (12 MSPs) The ongoing GBNCC survey promises to keep increasing this number by a lot (so stay tuned)
