ADC_Keywords: Pulsars ; Combined data

Description:
    The catalogue of pulsars with several calculated data is used by the
    cluster analysis for the division of pulsars into groups. Pulsars
    with periods P>1s and P<0.1s form two separate classes; the
    short-period objects, in turn, divide into two groups. One of these
    consist of young pulsars that form in the galactic plane or in
    globular clusters, while the other group consist of spun-up pulsars.
