Description |
PSR J1713+0747 is an extremely stable millisecond pulsar used in global pulsar timing array campaigns as a high priority pulsar because of its strong S/N, narrow profile and long-term observation history. In April 2021, the pulsar experienced a significant event related to a change in its magnetosphere, presented as an observable change in the pulsar’s profile. Since then, the pulsar has been slowly recovering and we wish to observe it with high cadence to allow us to create a detailed time-resolved series of variations in the MSPs profile, polarisation, and other properties. Under this proposal, we wish to probe the profile recovery on daily timescales (3 times per week with 2 day intervals in between), revealing additional short timescale behaviours, indicative of changes in the magnetosphere which are not available to other telescopes in the world, thanks to the Parkes UWL. This will also allow us to determine if the magnetosphere has returned to its original configuration or is settling into a new one. Understanding the recovery of this event is key for demonstrating that such pulsars are still viable clocks for use in gravitational wave studies, and in turn, provide us with new data on how the normally stable magnetosphere of this millisecond pulsar responds to an impulsive change in state.
