Scientific rational

Pulsars are not only interersting objects for us to understand various astronomical phenomena, but also testbeds for fundamental laws as well as tools for detecting nHz gravitational waves. The Annual FPS series aims to promote pulsar research, gathering pulsar astronomers to exchange ideas on recent developments, provoke discussion, and foster collaboration.

From the year 2017, FPS Prizes would be announced during meeting. Winners (one Crab Prize and Two Vela Prizes) are selected from the FPS speakers of students and postdoc fellows, by an ad hoc committee.
