Timing of Large Magellanic Cloud Pulsars

ORAL

Abstract

We present the timing results of eight recently discovered radio pulsars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We went to the Parkes Radio Telescope in Australia and subsequently observed each pulsar monthly, for a total of one year. We will discuss the pulsars' ages, positions, magnetic field strengths, rates of rotation and energy loss. These eight pulsars represent a third of the currently known LMC pulsar population.
