Abstract

TheP of pulsars provides important information for studying their physical processes. In an all-round way the effect of the Galactic rotation on the measuredP of pulsars is studied. It is shown that among 706 pulsars discovered so far there are 16 pulsars whose measured values ofP have been affected by the Galactic rotation. So, it is necessary to make the corresponding corrections for those pulsars
