The European Pulsar Network Data Archive


As part of the European Pulsar Network (EPN), we are now maintaining an archive of published data. All profiles are in EPN format. Click here for a document describing the format and here to load a G-zipped tar file with format-compatible software. All profiles are available in raw ASCII form - for those who can't be bothered with all that EPN paraphernalia.

The database presently consists largely of pulse profiles but may in the future contain pulse time-of-arrival measurements. Such an archive is being maintained at the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington.

The profiles are available by various routes: either by down-loading files containing available data for each publication from the index below, by browsing the database directly or by using the all- search facility. To use the latter tools, your net viewer must be able to read HTML Version 3.0 or later releases. We recommend Netscape.


Data from the following papers are now available...
