CLYPOS: the Cananea-Ljubljana Young Pulsar Optical Survey

The Cananea-Ljubljana Young Pulsar Optical Survey, or CLYPOS, is an observational study of ≳ 30 known radio pulsars, in search for pulsed optical emission. The survey is being carried out at the 2.12m telescope of the Observatorio Astrofísico Guillermo Haro, near Cananea, Sonora, using the stroboscopic camera of the University of Ljubljana. We restricted the study to young pulsars with declination δ > −35°, prioritized in terms of E / d 2 . Our strategy consists in spending two hours of observing time per pulsar, scanning the whole pulsed-phase interval three times. Further details are given below.
