Abstract:We present the detection of 107 pulsars with interstellar scintillation arcs at 856-1712 MHz, observed with the MeerKAT Thousand Pulsar Array Programme. Scintillation arcs appear to be ubiquitous in clean, high S/N observations, their detection mainly limited by short observing durations and coarse frequency channel resolution. This led the survey to be sensitive to nearby, lightly scattered pulsars with high effective velocity -from a large proper motion, a screen nearby the pulsar, or a screen near the Earth… Show more
