Title P236 - Polarization and Rotation Measures of Recently Discovered Pulsars
 
Subject Astronomical and Space Sciences not elsewhere classified
 
Description The Parkes radio telescope has found about two-thirds of the known
pulsars. Most of these have been found over the past few years by the
Parkes multibeam pulsar survey. These pulsars are widely distributed
in the disk of our Galaxy, making them valuable probes of the
interstellar medium. We propose to investigate 200 of the stronger
multibeam pulsars which do not yet have measured polarisation
data. These observations will provide valuable information on the radio pulse
emission mechanism. They will also be used to further investigate a
new model for the large-scale structure of the magnetic field in the
Galactic disk.
