Taylor, Joseph AST 96-18357 Dr. Taylor will continue his research program based on radio frequency observations of pulsars. High precision observations of pulsars provide insight into issues in stellar evolution, gravitation physics, cosmology, fundamental astrometry, and time-keeping. Dr. Taylor's observational program will extend and improve a series of timing measurements of binary and millisecond pulsars, with particular emphasis on measurements of general relativistic effects, continue searches for new pulsars, especially those with short periods, obtain proper motion and parallax measurements for millisecond pulsars, and investigate the emission physics of pulsars through polarimetric and single-pulse measurements. His program includes a significant component of instrument development and improvement and includes plans to take advantage of the upgrades to the Arecibo telescope and the new Green Bank Telescope of NRAO. ***

Taylor, Joseph AST 96-18357 泰勒博士将继续他基于脉冲星射频观测的研究计划。 对脉冲星的高精度观测有助于深入了解恒星演化、引力物理学、宇宙学、基础天体测量和计时等问题。 泰勒博士的观测计划将扩展和改进一系列双星和毫秒脉冲星的计时测量，特别强调广义相对论效应的测量，继续寻找新的脉冲星，特别是短周期的脉冲星，获得毫秒脉冲星的自行和视差测量，并通过偏振和单脉冲测量研究脉冲星的发射物理。 他的计划包括仪器开发和改进的重要组成部分，并包括利用阿雷西博望远镜和 NRAO 的新绿岸望远镜升级的计划。 ***
