The Discovery of a 41-Second Radio Pulsar PSR J0311+1402 with ASKAP

March 18, 2025

The recently discovered PSR J0311+1402 offers new insights into the evolving population of long-period radio transients (LPTs) and their connection to normal pulsars. Unlike typical pulsars, which spin in milliseconds to seconds, LPTs have much […]

A Partial Lunar Eclipse Over Australia

March 17, 2025

Last Friday night (March 14, 2025), a partial lunar eclipse briefly graced the skies over eastern Australia. While much of the world witnessed a stunning “Blood Moon,” Australians could only […]

An active repeating fast radio burst in a magnetised eruption environment

March 14, 2025

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration radio pulses of extragalactic origin with largely unknown progenitors. Some FRBs show mild variations in their magneto-ionic environment, possibly due to plasma turbulence or […]

Processing of GASKAP-Hi pilot survey data using a commercial supercomputer
