DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Bevan Tucker (University of the Witwatersrand)\nThe 
 advent of the MeerKAT and SKA radio telescope projects will allow for vast
 ly improved precision in the measurement of pulsar radio frequency emissio
 ns.  Thus\, the propagation of a pulsar’s conical radio beam through the
  strong gravitational field region in the vicinity of a compact object\, i
 .e. black-hole or another neutron star\, will probe the metric of spacetim
 e in the high-field regime.  This talk outlines the theoretical and associ
 ated numerical predictions of General Relativistic effects\, such as the L
 ense-Thirring effect\, on such a pulsar signal.\n\nhttps://events.saip.org
