Executive Summary :

This project will carry out both a point source as well as a stacked search to look for spatial coincidences between millisecond pulsars and neutrinos. For this purpose it will use the publicly available data. A detection would be very exciting. In absence of detection, upper limits will be set and compared to theoretical models of neutrino emission from pulsars.

Total Budget (INR):

6,60,000
