Radio pulsars are rapidly rotating highly magnetized neutron stars.
Studies of these fascinating objects have provided applications in
solid-state physics, general relativity, galactic astronomy,
astrometry, planetary physics and even cosmology. Most of these
applications and much of what we know about neutron stars are
derived from single-dish radio observations using state-of-the-art
receivers and data acquisition systems. This comprehensive 2004
book is a unique resource that brings together the key
observational techniques, background information and a review of
results, including the discovery of a double pulsar system. Useful
software tools are provided which can be used to analyse example
data, made available on a related website. This work will be of
great value not only to graduate students but also to researchers
wishing to carry out and interpret a wide variety of radio pulsar
observations.
