cds-question@unistra.frpulsarsradio-sourcessurveysThe AO327 drift survey for radio pulsars and transients used the Arecibo telescope from 2010 until its collapse in 2020. AO327 collected ~3100hr of data at 327MHz with a time resolution of 82{mu}s and a frequency resolution of 24kHz. While the main motivation for such surveys is the discovery of new pulsars and new, even unforeseen, types of radio transients, they also serendipitously collect a wealth of data on known pulsars. We present an electronic catalog of data and data products of 206 pulsars whose periodic emission was detected by AO327 and are listed in the Australia Telescope National Facility catalog of all published pulsars. The AO327 data products include dedispersed time series at full time resolution, average ("folded") pulse profiles, Gaussian pulse profile templates, and an absolute phase reference that allows phase aligning the AO327 pulse profiles in a physically meaningful manner with profiles from data taken with other instruments. We also provide machine-readable tables with uncalibrated flux measurements at 327 MHz and pulse widths at 50% and 10% of the pulse peak determined from the fitted Gaussian profile templates. The AO327 catalog data set can be used in applications like population analysis of radio pulsars, pulse profile evolution studies in time and frequency, cone and core emission of the pulsar beam, scintillation, pulse intensity distributions, and others. It also constitutes a ready-made resource for teaching signal-processing and pulsar astronomy techniques.2024ApJS..271...23Dhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/271/23CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toB/psr : ATNF Pulsar Catalogue (Manchester+, 2005)J/ApJS/121/171 : Arecibo polarimetry of 98 pulsars (Weisberg+, 1999)J/ApJ/605/759 : Multifrequency obs. of radio pulse broadening (Bhat+, 2004)J/MNRAS/359/1524 : 10 new pulsars in Arecibo drift-scan survey (Lorimer+, 2005)J/MNRAS/436/3557 : Long-period pulsars polarimetry (Tiburzi+, 2013)J/ApJ/804/23 : 327MHz observations of 124 pulsars (Krishnakumar+, 2015)J/ApJ/812/81 : Arecibo Pulsar-ALFA (PALFA) survey.
