Proposal Title: Investigation of Mode switching phenomenon in single-component pulsars
ABSTRACT:
We request 16 hr of telescope time for observations of a small sample of pulsars with single-component pulse
proles. The primary goal is to investigate the stability of the pulse structure and strength, in particular with an
attempt to detect mode switching phenomenon. This is motivated by our recent ndings from post-upgrade
Arecibo data, where PSR B0611+22, a pulsar with a single-component prole (core single), appears to show mode
switching phenomenon over durations of up to ~ 500 pulse periods. This makes it the only core-single pulsar that
exhibits mode switching. Further, the new data also reveal previously unresolved components of this pulsar. It is
our aim to conrm and further investigate these results, and extend such a study to several more pulsars that are
classied as 'singles'. We expect that our results will contribute to estimates of the emission heights and have
implications for better understanding of the geometry of pulsars.
