    Dowell, J.; Ray, P. S.; Taylor, G. B.; Blythe, J. N.; Clarke, Tracy E.; Craig, J.; Ellingson, Steven W.; Helmboldt, J. F.; Henning, P. A.; Lazio, T. J. W.; Schinzel, F.; Stovall, K.; Wolfe, C. N. (IOP Publishing, 2013-09-01)
    We present flux density measurements and pulse profiles for the millisecond pulsar PSR J2145-0750 spanning 37 to 81 MHz using data obtained from the first station of the Long Wavelength Array. These measurements represent the lowest frequency detection of pulsed emission from a millisecond pulsar to date. We find that the pulse profile is similar to that observed at 102 MHz. We also find that the flux density spectrum between approximate to 40 MHz to 5 GHz is suggestive of a break and may be better fit by a model that includes spectral curvature with a rollover around 730 MHz rather than a single power law.
