Project Summary
We have observed the disk of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) with the
Green
Bank 100-m Telescope (GBT) to search for pulsars and transients
using 1-2 hr integrations at 350 MHz with 100 MHz of bandwidth.
HEIMDALL and FETCH were used to search for single pulses and bursts
and PRESTO was used for the periodicity search.
