Title P682 - A high time resolution survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud
 
Subject Astronomical and Space Sciences not elsewhere classified
 
Description We will be surveying the Small Magellanic Cloud in order to detect radio pulsars that have spin periods on the order of milliseconds. None of these have been detected in either the Large or Small Magellanic Clouds as of yet, and they only make of a small portion of the pulsar population in our Galaxy. Detecting some of these in the Small Magellanic Cloud would not only be a first, but it would help us to compare the ratio of millisecond to normal pulsars in the Small Magellanic Cloud versus our own Milky Way Galaxy.
