PSR J0922+0638 (B0919+06) shows unexplained anomalous variations in the on-pulse phase, where the pulse appears to episodically move to an earlier longitude for a few tens of rotations before reverting to the usual phase for approximately…
Here we report on observations of the radio magnetar PSR J1622-4950 at frequencies from 1.4 to 17 GHz. We show that although its flux density is varying up to a factor of ~10 within a few days, it has on average decreased by a factor of 2…
We report the detection of pulse-to-pulse periodic intensity modulations, in observations of recycled pulsars. Even though the detection of individual pulses was generally not possible due to their low flux density and short duration,…
We revisit the phenomenon of pulse nulling using high-quality single-pulse data of PSR B1133+16 from simultaneous multifrequency observations. Observations were made at 325, 610, 1400 and 4850 MHz as part of a joint program between the…
We present the results of a high-time resolution polarization study of single pulses from pulsars B0950+08 and B1642-03. Single pulses from pulsar B0950+08 sometimes show isolated micropulses without any significant associated subpulse…
The usefulness and versatility of the PSRSALSA open-source pulsar data-analysis project is demonstrated through an analysis of the radio pulsar B1839-04. This study focuses on the phenomenon of bi-drifting, an effect where the drift…
We report on the detection of sporadic, strong single pulses co-existing with a periodic weak emission in the duration of weak mode of PSR B0826-34. The intensities and durations of these pulses are comparable with that of the sub-pulses in…
We have used the 76-m Lovell, 94-m equivalent WSRT and 100-m Effelsberg radio telescopes to investigate the simultaneous single-pulse properties of the radio emitting magnetar AXP XTE J1810-197 at frequencies of 1.4, 4.8 and 8.35 GHz during…
We report a detailed analysis of the emission behaviour of the five component, core-double cone, pulsar J2006$-$0807 (B2003$-$08). The single pulses revealed the presence of the three major phenomena of subpulse drifting, nulling and mode…
The phenomenon of pulsar nulling, where pulsars temporarily and stochastically cease their radio emission, is thought to be indicative of a `dying' pulsar, where radio emission ceases entirely. Here we report the discovery of a long-period…
We study the spin-down changes of PSR B1859$+$07 over a period of more than 28 years of radio observation. We identify that the time derivative of the rotational frequency ($\nu$) varies quasi-periodically with a period of $\sim$350 days,…
In an earlier paper (Ahuja, et al, 2005), based on simultaneous multi-frequency observations with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), we reported the variation of pulsar dispersion measures (DMs) with frequency. A few different…
Single pulses from radio pulsars contain a wealth of information about emission and propagation in the magnetosphere and insight into their timing properties. It was recently demonstrated that single-pulse emission is responsible for…
The low frequency (110--180 MHz) capabilities of the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) are used to characterise a large collection of single pulses from three low magnetic field pulsars. Using the Pulsar Machine II (PuMa-II) to…
The recent discovery of J0737-3039A & B-two pulsars in a highly relativistic orbit around one another - offers an unprecedented opportunity to study the elusive physics of pulsar radio emission. The system contains a rapidly rotating pulsar…
We report the discovery of PSR J0031$-$5726 in the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA eXtended imaging survey at a Galactic latitude of $b \approx -60^\circ$. The pulsar exhibits both sporadic, extremely bright pulses reminiscent of…
We derive the exact drift velocity of plasma in the pulsar polar cap, in contrast to the order-of-magnitude expressions presented by Ruderman & Sutherland (1975) and generally used throughout the literature. We emphasize that the drift…
The nature of coherent radio emission is still challenging even after more than half a century of pulsar discovery, but it is generally a consensus that single-pulse observations are essential for probing the magnetospheric dynamics,…
We investigate the radio emission behaviour of PSR B0823+26, a pulsar which is known to undergo pulse nulling, using an 153-d intensive sequence of observations. The pulsar is found to exhibit both short (~min) and unusually long-term…
Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are a relatively new subclass of pulsars that emit detectable radio bursts sporadically. We conducted an analysis of 10 RRATs observed using the Parkes telescope, with 8 of these observed via the…
