Abstract

Abstract The National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences is now building a 50 m radio telescope at the Miyun Station. In this paper, we give a brief introduction to the Miyun Station. The main specifications and the status of construction of the 50 m radio telescope are described. We are now building an L-band pulsar receiver for this new 50 m telescope. The status of this receiver project is also described. The 50 m telescope, together with the pulsar receiver, will make it a powerful radio telescope to carry out pulsar observations and researches in the near future.
