Abstract
Polarimetric data are presented for a total of 82 (mostly southern) pu lsars at observing frequencies of 800 MHz (18 pulsars) and 950 MHz (82 pulsars). 32 of the sources were observed using a high-speed integrat or with milliperiod resolution. For many of the pulsars observed, ther e is no published polarimetry and, for most, these observations consti tute the only data between 630 and 1612 MHz. Faraday rotation measurem ents for 24 pulsars are also presented. Most of the pulsars examined s how properties that are readily explicable in terms of core and conal components. Notable results include integrated profile mode-changing i dentified for the first time in PSR B1358 - 63, confirmation of high i nclinations between magnetic and rotation axes in the interpulsars PSR B1055 - 52 and PSR B1702 - 19, and significant rotation measure chang es in PSR B1556 - 44 and PSR B1727 - 47.
