Description

Mean pulse profiles of the pulsar PSR 1055-52 have been measured at frequencies of 308, 400, 635 and 1400 MHz; in addition measurements have been made of the strong linear polarization at 1400 MHz. The pulse shape is found to be complex with a strong interpulse approximately midway between the main components. The average pulse from PSR 1055-52 displays certain remarkable similarities to that of the Crab Nebula pulsar PSR 0531 + 21. (author)
