We are conducting a search for radio pulsars using the Parkes 64 m telescope, covering the galactic latitude range 15o < | b | < 25o from l=260o to l=50o. Each pointing is observed for 265 s with the 13-beam multibeam system at a frequency of 1374 MHz. The signal from each beam is processed by a 2 x 96 channel filterbank sampled every 125 μ s, with a bandwidth of 288 MHz. These observing parameters afford rapid sky coverage and good sensitivity to pulsars with periods as short as ~1 ms, whose existence would constrain the neutron star equation of state. Data are analyzed offline using the workstation cluster at the Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing. Analysis of ~2200 square degrees of the survey has been completed, yielding twenty new pulsars including four binary recycled pulsars. Three of these objects have great potential for ultra high precision timing experiments, and one has an unusual massive white dwarf companion. We present the current status of survey observations and analysis as well as follow-up observations of the newly discovered pulsars.
