Abstract
AN investigation of the variation in amplitude of individual pulses from pulsars was undertaken on June 29–31 using the 46 m antenna at Algonquin Radio Observatory with the receiver usually used in the long baseline interferometer programme. The system specifications were: right-hand circular polarization, a centre frequency of 408 MHz, r.f. bandwidth of 4 MHz, and a system noise of 300 K. The signals were detected, passed through a low-pass filter of variable bandwidth with the cut-off frequency set to 10 Hz for the observations reported here, and recorded on a high-speed chart recorder. Of the twenty-six pulsars investigated only CP 0328 had sufficiently intense pulses to warrant further analysis. A typical record is shown in Fig. 1.
