pinta: The uGMRT Data Processing Pipeline for the Indian Pulsar Timing Array

2020 
We introduce pinta, a pipeline for reducing the uGMRT raw pulsar timing data developed for the Indian Pulsar Timing Array experiment. We provide a detailed description of the workflow and usage of pinta, as well as its computational performance and RFI mitigation characteristics. Furthermore, the results of a calibration experiment carried out to determine the relative time offsets between different back-end modes and the correct interpretation of the observatory frequency settings at the uGMRT, which are crucial for performing precision pulsar timing, are also discussed.
