Abstract
The present study developed fast time-domain capability for the ALMA phased-array system that is needed for observations of compact objects in the Galactic center and elsewhere in the Galaxy. ALMA can provide unparalleled sensitivity to a spectral region that has been poorly explored for neutron stars. Observations at mm and sub-mm wavelengths have the potential for providing decisive observational constraints on emission processes from the magnetospheres of neutron stars. ALMA is also important for surveys for pulsars and transients in the Galactic center. This is a final report of the work performed.
