Explore the development of an off-time pulsar search pipeline specifically designed for the SPOTLIGHT survey in this 18-minute conference talk. Learn about the technical implementation and methodological approaches used to create a specialized pipeline for detecting pulsars during off-time observations within the GMRT's SPOTLIGHT commensal survey program. Discover the computational strategies, signal processing techniques, and algorithmic considerations involved in optimizing pulsar detection capabilities when the primary telescope observations are focused on other astronomical targets. Understand how this pipeline contributes to maximizing the scientific output of the SPOTLIGHT survey by enabling simultaneous pulsar searches during periods when the telescope is conducting other observations. Gain insights into the challenges of developing efficient search algorithms that can operate in parallel with primary survey operations while maintaining high sensitivity for pulsar detection across various observational parameters.
