Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pulsar astronomy is experiencing a second renaissance, thanks to advances in instrumentation—for instance, the recent commissioning of facilities such as CHIME, MeerKAT, and FAST—as well as the development of novel methods and analysis techniques.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect contributions that capture the state of the profession at this critical moment in time.
Reviews on recent novel research directions such as scintillometry, commensal searches, multi-wavelength/multi-messenger observations, high-precision simulations, novel data-analysis algorithms, and new future instruments are especially welcome.
Dr. John Antoniadis
