We have completed a 350 MHz drift scan survey using the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope with the goal of finding new radio pulsars, especially millisecond pulsars that can be timed to high precision. This survey covered ~10300 square degrees and all of the data have now been fully processed. We have discovered a total of 31 new pulsars, seven of which are recycled pulsars. A companion paper by Boyles et al. (2012) describes the survey strategy, sky coverage, and instrumental set-up, and presents timing solutions for the first 13 pulsars. Here we describe the data analysis pipeline, survey sensitivity, and follow-up observations of new pulsars, and present timing solutions for 10 other pulsars. We highlight several sources---two interesting nulling pulsars, an isolated millisecond pulsar with a measurement of proper motion, and a partially recycled pulsar, PSR J0348+0432, which has a white dwarf companion in a relativistic orbit. PSR J0348+0432 will enable unprecedented tests of theories of gravity.

  1. Constraints on Einstein-aether gravity from the precision timing of PSR J1738+0333

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Precision timing of PSR J1738+0333 from EPTA and NANOGrav data yields the tightest strong-field constraints on Einstein-aether parameters from any single binary pulsar.

  2. Hot quark matter and (proto-) neutron stars

    nucl-th 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    An extended PNJL model locates the QCD critical end point and predicts that proto-neutron stars contain hyperons and Delta-isobars but no deconfined quarks, which appear only in cold neutron stars.

  3. Matter And Gravitation In Collisions of heavy ions and neutron stars: equation of state

    hep-ph 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    A unified QCD equation of state is advocated for neutron star mergers and heavy ion collisions so that gravitational wave signals and lab flow/fluctuation data can jointly constrain the phase structure of dense matter.

  4. Phase transitions in neutron stars and their links to gravitational waves

    astro-ph.HE 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    Review of neutron star dense matter, hadron-quark phase transitions, and potential g-mode signatures in gravitational waves from multimessenger observations.
