Simultaneous dual-frequency observations of giant pulses from the Crab pulsar were performed at the frequencies of 61 and 111 MHz. It is shown that scattering of giant pulses from the Crab pulsar occurs at thick, and not at thin screen.
Measurements of pulsar flux densities are of great importance for understanding the pulsar emission mechanism and for predictions of pulsar survey yields and the pulsar population at large. Typically these flux densities are determined from…
Timing pulses of pulsars has proved to be a most powerful technique useful to a host of research areas in astronomy and physics. Importantly, the precision of this timing is not only affected by radiometer noise, but also by intrinsic pulse…

Pulsars are the most stable macroscopic clocks found in nature. Spinning with periods as short as a few milliseconds, their stability can supersede that of the best atomic clocks on Earth over timescales of a few years. Stable clocks are…

We study the effect of pulsar rotation on timing of binary pulsars, with particular emphasis on the double pulsar system J0737-3039. Special relativistic aberration due to the orbital motion of pulsar changes both the longitude and…
Interstellar scattering (ISS) of radio pulsar emission can be used as a probe of the ionised interstellar medium (IISM) and causes corruptions in pulsar timing experiments. Two types of ISS phenomena (intensity scintillation and pulse…

The Crab pulsar has striking radio emission properties, with the two dominant pulse components -- the main pulse and the interpulse -- consisting entirely of giant pulses. The emission is scattered in both the Crab nebula and the…
