Pushchino multibeam pulsar search: I. Targeted search of weak pulsars
Abstract
The search for pulsars in a sample of pulsar candidates found based on a multi-year survey conducted with low (6 channels; sampling 0.1s) time-frequency resolution on declinations -9^o < \delta < +42^o was carried out. A Large Phased Array (LPA) transit telescope operating at 111 MHz in the 2.5 MHz band was used. Search, analysis and evidence of pulsar detection were carried out using a visualization program of summed up power spectra obtained from the survey data with high 32 channels; sampling 12.5ms) time-frequency resolution. 11 new pulsars with periods P0 = 0.41-3.75 s and dispersion measure DM=15-154 pc/cm^3 have been discovered. In total, in the survey with a low time-frequency resolution for the period 2016-2021 in a blind search, 208 pulsars were found, of them 42 new and 166 known pulsars. It is shown that in the search on the data with high time-frequency resolution accumulated over a time interval of 7 years, pulsars with a flux density of 0.1 - 0.2 mJy at the frequency of 111 MHz can be detected. When searching for pulsars with regular (periodic) emission at declinations +21^o < \delta < +42^o, all pulsars located outside the galactic plane, having P0 \ge 0.5 s, DM \le 100 pc/cm^3 and the flux density S \ge 0.5 mJy, can be detected
