We have observed a complex and continuous change in the integrated pulse profile of PSR B2217+47, manifested as additional components trailing the main peak. These transient components are detected over 6 years at $150$ MHz using the LOw…

It has been proposed that radio pulsars can be distinguished from other point-like radio sources in continuum images by their unique interstellar scintillation signatures. Using data from the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder…

We report multifrequency measurements of scatter broadening times for nine highly dispersed pulsars over a wide frequency range (0.6 -- 4.9 GHz). We find the scatter broadening times to be larger than expected and to scale with frequency…
