A Lab to Detect Radio Pulsars Using a Remotely Accessed 18-Meter Radiotelescope
written by Norman Jarosik and Daniel Marlow
An undergraduate laboratory experiment where students use an 18-m radio telescope to observe radio pulsars is described. The telescope, which is located near the New Jersey shore town of Belmar, is accessible via the internet allowing students to acquire data remotely. The relatively weak pulsar signals are extracted from the background noise using signal averaging.
