cds-question@unistra.frpulsarsradio-sourcesWe present the results of a 430-MHz survey for pulsars conducted during the upgrade to the 305-m Arecibo radio telescope. Our survey covered a total of 1147deg^2^ of sky using a drift-scan technique. We detected 33 pulsars, 10 of which were not known prior to the survey observations. The highlight of the new discoveries is PSR J0407+1607, which has a spin period of 25.7ms, a characteristic age of 1.5Gyr and is in a 1.8-yr orbit about a low-mass (>0.2M) companion. The long orbital period and small eccentricity (e=0.0009) make the binary system an important new addition to the ensemble of binary pulsars suitable to test for violations of the strong equivalence principle. We also report on our initially unsuccessful attempts to detect optically the companion to J0407+1607, which imply that its absolute visual magnitude is >12.1. If, as expected on evolutionary grounds, the companion is an He white dwarf, our non-detection implies a cooling age of least 1Gyr.2005MNRAS.359.1524Lhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/359/1524CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/189 : Catalog of Pulsars (Taylor+ 1995)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/359/1524GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/359/1524/table2 (STScI/NAIC survey detection statistics.)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table2?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table2?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table2?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true24.349516.91169440.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/359/1524/table3 (Parameters for the nine isolated pulsars derived from the tempo timing analysis)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table3?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table3?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table3?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true24.349516.911694440.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/359/1524/table5 (Observed and derived parameters for the 10 pulsars discovered in the survey)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table5?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table5?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/359/1524/table5?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true24.349516.91169440.0055555555555555566/323 389 4163 4403 4831 8458 8644 9040 9283 12767 12847 12870 12975 13316 13405 14394 14408 18421 20166 23983 30449 30493 30579 30582 30593-30595 30600 30623 30641 30644 30657 30702 30708 30713 31859 32058 32069https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/359/1524?format=asciiRadiodefaultJ/MNRAS/359/1524/table2STScI/NAIC survey detection statistics.PerPeriodmstime.perioddoublerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
