Timing Observations of Rotating Radio Transients
We present radio timing measurements of six rotating radio transient (RRAT) sources discovered in the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey. These provide four new phaseconnected timing solutions and two updated ones, making a total of seven of the original 11 reported RRATs now with high-precision rotational and astrometric parameters. Three of these seven RRATs have magnetic fields greater than 10 G...
متن کاملPhysical Interpretations of Rotating Radio Transients
Nearly a dozen of Rotating RAdio Transients (RRATs) have been discovered recently. These objects share similar spin parameters with normal radio pulsars but distinguish themselves from normal pulsars by being quiescent most of the time and only becoming radio bright occasionally. We discuss two possible interpretations to the phenomenon. The first model suggests that these objects are pulsars s...
متن کاملRotating Radio Transients: X-ray observations
Rotating RAdio Transients are a new class of neutron stars discovered through the emission of radio bursts. Eleven sources are known up to now, but population studies predict these objects to be more numerous than the normal radio pulsar population. Multiwavelength observations of these peculiar objects are in progress to disentangle their spectral energy distribution, and then study in detail ...
متن کاملRotating Radio Transients and Their Place Among Pulsars
Six years ago, the discovery of Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) marked what appeared to be a new type of sparsely-emitting pulsar. Since 2006, more than 70 of these objects have been discovered in single-pulse searches of archival and new surveys. With a continual inflow of new information about the RRAT population in the form of new discoveries, multifrequency follow ups, coherent timing sol...
متن کاملSearches for Fast Radio Transients
We discuss optimal detection of fast radio transients from astrophysical objects while taking into account the effects of propagation through intervening ionized media, including dispersion, scattering and scintillation. Our analysis applies to the giant-pulse phenomenon exhibited by some pulsars, for which we show examples, and to radio pulses from other astrophysical sources, such as prompt r...
