Pulsars are rotating magnetized Neutron Stars with extremely high gravitational fields, magnetic fields and    stable rotational periods. Pulsar timing is the art of accounting for every rotation of a pulsar. It is an extremely great tool for probing various astrophysical phenomena of the interior of neutron stars, their magnetospheres, the interstellar medium, etc. In this talk, I will present the various efforts I have been involved in related to pulsar timing. I will focus on a few monitoring programs with Indian radio telescopes: the Ooty Radio Telescope and the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. These monitoring programs aim to detect pulsar glitches in young pulsars and provide highly-sensitive, low-frequency data for PTA experiments using millisecond pulsars. I will also present the InPTA-EPTA combined efforts and the IPTA projects I have been involved with in the past few months. 

Breve CV di Jaikhomba Singha:

I am a research scholar working on various observational and theoretical aspects of Neutron Stars. On the theoretical front, I am interested in understanding the composition and the structure of Neutron Star interiors. On the observational front, I mostly work on timing these exotic systems through radio observations using the two Indian radio telescopes: Ooty Radio Telescope (ORT) and upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT). For the past few years, I have been monitoring a sample of young pulsars using these facilities to look for irregularities in the timing evolution of these pulsars. I am also a member of the Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA) Experiment, where we observe a sample of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) to obtain high sensitive low frequency data. For the collaboration, I have been leading a couple of projects related to timing, profile changes and Interstellar Medium studies. Recently, I have also started to join and work in various working groups of the European Pulsar TIming Array (EPTA) and the International Pulsar Timing Array collaboration.
