MeerKAT observation of the radio magnetar candidate Swift J1818.0-1607
Abstract
Following the reported detection and confirmation of pulsed radio emission from the magnetar candidate Swift J1818.0-1607 (GCN #27373; ATel #13553; ATel #13554), we conducted a 15 minute observation of the pulsar with the MeerKAT array at UTC 2020-03-16-09:31 as part of the MeerTime thousand-pulsar-array project (Johnston et al. 2020).
