Abstract

The Parkes radio telescope has been used to detect 10 more millisecond pulsars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae. More than half of these millipulsars are members of binary systems. Almost half of the known millisecond pulsars and more than a quarter of known binary pulsars now reside in this one cluster.
