Database II of Single pulses from the Parkes telescope

Created 20/09/2025

Updated 20/09/2025

This is an updated Parkes transient database (PTD II) for https://data.csiro.au/collection/csiro:42640. PTD II contains 165,592 single pulses from 363 known pulsars. Unlike previous databases while maintaining a compact size of only 1.5 GB. The database employs a sqlite3 structure organising pulsar metadata, observation files, and pulse events with their raw data stored in binary format. We provide processing tools (get_pulsar_pub.py) for extracting and analysing single-pulse data, enabling fluence fitting and statistical analysis.
