It is proposed to construct a 2 km long and 50 m wide cylindrical radio telescope at a site close to the earth's equator. By placing the long axis of the cylinder in the north-south direction at the equator, its axis of ...

This paper explores the potential of present and future ground based gamma-ray telescopes to detect GeV to multi-GeV pulsed emission from EGRET pulsars. Five types of telescopes can in principle detect such emission: The ...

Ever since their discovery, pulsars have been proved to be excellent tools to study the Interstellar Medium. Results from new observations using the Ooty Radio Telescope at 327 MHz are used to investigate the properties ...

We give a brief account of various observational data about pulsars, of some of the conclusions one can derive from these data, about the nature of the pulsars, and in particular, of the properties of the binary pulsar PSR ...

We report here spectral study of two accreting binary X-ray pulsars LMC X-4 and SMC X1 made with the Beppo-SAX observatory. The energy spectrum of both the pulsars in 0.1-10.0 keV band can be described by a model consisting ...

The standard big bang models of classical cosmology are known to possess three defects. The oldest known defect is the spacetime singularity whose existence seems inevitable within the classical framework. The second defect ...

Spectral observations of the Sun in the frequency range of 54 to 78 MHz in the November 24, 2000 solar flare showed quasi - periodic pulsations with periods in the range of 11 - 19 seconds. YOHKOH images of this flare ...

This paper has been written in a highly personal vein. It’s a resume of the very modest effort made by the author and his students in understanding some aspects of extragalactic astronomy and astrophysics during the former’s ...

The 3-D structure of quiet Sun chromospheric network magnetic field is studied by comparing the observed and computed chromospheric magnetograms. The comparison shows that the best correlation occurs at 1800 km above the ...
