Abstract:
The rotation of more than 700 pulsars has been monitored using the
76-m Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank. Here we report on a new search
for glitches in the observations, revealing 128 new glitches in the
rotation of 63 pulsars. Combining these new data with those already
published, we present a data base containing 315 glitches in 102
pulsars.
Description:
The Jodrell Bank timing data base comprises observations of more than
700 pulsars, carried out at Jodrell Bank Observatory (JBO) since 1978.
Observation procedures are described by Hobbs et al. (2004, Cat.
J/MNRAS/353/1311). In summary, these have mostly been performed with
the 76-m Lovell telescope, with some complementary observations made
using the 30-m MkII and 42-ft telescopes. Every pulsar is observed at
typical intervals of 2-10 d in a 64-MHz band centred on 1404-MHz,
using an analogue filter bank. Occasionally, observations were also
carried out in a band centred at 610-MHz.
