Step to the neutron stars 4. The choice of antenna type
So to be able to detect pulsar in reasonable observation time, the minimum gain of the antenna should be at least 14dB at 400 MHz. I choose a linear polarization…
Step to the neutron stars 3. B0329+54
In this project, I aim to detect only one pulsar - B0329 + 54. It is the most powerful radio pulsar in the Northern Hemisphere. It is located in the…
Step to the neutron stars 2. Radiometer equation
Let us consider a source of unpolarized flux density . This flux is collected by a telescope with an effective area of , where is the geometric area of the…
