Scientific paper

The micro-channel plate intensified CCD photon counting detector developed at University College London has been upgraded to allow time-resolved spectroscopic optical data to be acquired on periodical sources such as pulsars. First observing trials have been carried out, acquiring spectroscopic data on the Crab pulsar. The detector was phase locked to the pulsar period and a temporal resolution of 41.4μs employed. The phase locking allowed the coaddition of time slices over a large number of pulsar periods to build up quantifiable spectroscopic data when observing in a flux-limited regime.
