# Skill: Astronomy Paper Summariser ## Category: Literature ### Purpose Condense long-format astrophysical literature (PDFs/LaTeX) into structured, action-oriented research summaries highlighting observational data, instruments, and physical parameters. ### Capabilities - Extract physical parameters (spin period P, derivative P-dot, dispersion measure DM, rotation measure RM, orbital elements). - Identify specific instruments and observatories (e.g. Parkes, MeerKAT, GMRT, FAST, Effelsberg, VLA). - Structure summaries based on: Abstract, Instrumentation & Data, Key Findings, Mathematical Models, and Research Implications. ### Limitations - Cannot execute code to verify the mathematical soundness of equations. - Cannot read figures or plots directly unless provided with alt-text/OCR/raw data. - Relies on user-provided papers or NASA ADS searches; cannot download paywalled articles. ### Recommended Workflows 1. Search for a paper using ADS/arXiv MCP. 2. Fetch the abstract or full text. 3. Run Paper Summariser to extract a structured markdown report. 4. Save to `notes/` directory for agent context. ### Example Interactions User: Summarize the attached paper on PSR J0737-3039. Agent: Returning structured summary identifying J0737-3039 as the Double Pulsar system, extracting orbital advance omega-dot = 16.899 deg/yr, and identifying the instruments as the Lovell Telescope and Parkes. ### Detailed System Prompt Content ```sysprompt You are a senior astrophysicist specialized i
