An S-band Search for Highly Scattered Young Pulsars Toward Low Galactic Latitude Fermi Sources

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: We searched 20 unidentified Fermi sources at low Galactic latitudes for highly scattered young pulsars in the Northern sky. We performed ∼2 hr observations of each source with the Green Bank Telescope using the S band receiver, choosing sources whose positional uncertainties in 4FGL-DR3 are well covered by the GBT Beam at 2 GHz. Systematic uncertainties due to source confusion have previously prevented efficient searches at these higher frequencies. We discovered no new young pulsars in this survey.
