The Little App that Could
Abstract
Ongoing pulsar surveys generate large numbers of possible pulsar signals called candidates. These candidates must be viewed and classified by people trained to recognize the signature of a pulsar. The Arecibo Remote Command Center (ARCC) and Google are teaming together to crowdsource this task by porting an existing pulsar candidate viewer to the Google App Engine. We present the candidate viewer resulting from this collaboration.
