Notes. The first two columns display the ephemeris name and the subset, followed by the number of pulsars and the number of astrometric timing measurements used in the least-squares fitting. Columns 5–10 tabulate the estimates of rotation parameters and the corresponding uncertainties (see Sect. 2.3 for details). (a)The rotation parameters were obtained from a single least-squares fitting for this sample. (b)The number of pulsars in this sample is so small (less than three) that the corresponding rotation parameters were not estimated.
