The Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey Data Release

Abstract

The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey began in 1997 and is now about 50% complete. It has discovered more than 400 new pulsars so far, including a number of young, high magnetic field, and relativistic binary pulsars. Early results, descriptions of the survey and follow up timing programs can be found in papers by Lyne et al. (1999 MNRAS in press, astro-ph/9911313), Camilo et al. (astro-ph/9911185), and Manchester et al. (astro-ph/9911319). This paper describes the data release policy and how you can gain access to the raw data and details on the pulsars discovered.
