Modeled pulsars in our Galaxy. Pulsars that are still emitting at the current time, and are beamed toward us, are marked with dots (only 10% of these shown). Simulated pulsars that are detected in LPPS are marked with blue open circles. The Earth is marked with a “+”, the Galactic center with a “*”. Left panel: projection onto the plane of the Galaxy is plotted, including spiral arms, with the Galactic center at y = −8.5 kpc from the Earth. Right panel: projection of the detections onto the vertical plane through the Galactic center and the Earth.
