Extract

The physical properties and spatial distribution of 12 pulsars discovered with the Molonglo radio telescope have been discussed by Mills. Several more pulsars have been detected and details will be published when the measurements are complete. Parameters of a recently discovered pulsar, MP 0628, are given in Table I. All the Molonglo pulsars have been found by visual examination of chart records. The use of pulse lengthening circuits to improve the visibility of pulsars on slow charts, and the continuation of the observations over several hundred hours with the greatest available sensitivity have been factors contributing significantly to the success of the Molonglo pulsar search.
