  2. 83. Advancing Polarization Calibration in LOFAR Beamformed Data: A Stepping Stone to SKA Low
    Caterina Tiburzi (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

    The LOFAR interferometer, operating across 10–240 MHz, is among the most advanced precursors to SKA Low, paving the way for next-generation low-frequency radio astronomy. LOFAR’s beamformed mode enables diverse science cases -- such as pulsars, Solar and transient studies. However, polarization analysis in beamformed mode has remained largely out of reach due to the absence of a reliable...

  3. 102. TRAPUM: Pulsar Surveys with MeerKAT and Lessons for the SKA Era
    Miquel Colom I Bernadich (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))
    27/11/2025, 17:15

    Transients and Pulsars with MeerKAT (TRAPUM) is a collection of pulsar surveys covering globular clusters, the Galactic plane, nearby galaxies, unidentified Fermi sources, and TeV/SNR/PWNe sources in the Milky Way. These surveys are both targeted and wide-field, and they represent the first pulsar searches with an SKA pathfinder, using hundreds of coherent beams during each observation. They...

  4. 7. Searching for pulsars in the Galactic center with MeerKAT
    Federico Abbate (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

    The idea of finding a pulsar in orbit around the supermassive black hole Sgr A* at the center of our Galaxy has fascinated pulsar astronomers for decades. The number and precision of tests of gravity that could be performed would far exceed those that can be performed nowadays. Further discoveries in the Galactic center have the potential of being revolutionary also for uncovering the nature...

  5. 58. Multifrequency study of the Crab giant pulses
    Luca Beduzzi (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))
    27/11/2025, 17:45

    Giant pulses (GPs) are very energetic and impulsive phenomena associated with the Crab pulsar, with flux densities up to few MJy and pulse widths ranging from ~100 ns to ~100 µs. GPs observed from the Crab pulsar can be used to study the energy distribution and their dynamic spectra can address the emission mechanisms of neutron stars. In this talk I will present multifrequency observations of...
