A Search for Fast Gamma Ray Pulsars with OSSE
Pulsar mode data from the Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) onboard the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, with time resolution between 125 s and 8 ms, have been analyzed for the presence of short period -ray pulsations. Observations of known point sources (including SN1987A, SN1993J, GROJ0422+32, and several pulsars) and of regions where high densities of pulsars are expected (...
متن کاملA Search for Radio-quiet Gamma-ray Pulsars
Most Galactic point sources of gamma rays remain unidentiÐed. The few (extrasolar) sources that have been identiÐed are all young, rotation-powered pulsars, all but one of which were identiÐed using radio ephemerides. The radio-quiet Geminga pulsar was identiÐed only after pulsations were discovered in a coincident X-ray source. Observational evidence indicates that many of the unidentiÐed Gala...
متن کاملFermi LAT Discovery of Gamma-ray Pulsars in a Blind Search
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST), with its improved sensitivity relative to previous generation gamma-ray telescopes, is significantly increasing the number of known gamma-ray sources in the sky, including pulsars. In addition to searching for gamma-ray emission from known radio pulsars, it is now possible to successfully perform blind searc...
متن کاملGamma-Ray Pulsars
Gamma-ray photons from young pulsars allow the deepest insight into the properties and interactions of high-energy particles with magnetic and photon fields in a pulsar magnetosphere. Measurements with the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory have led to the detection of nearly ten γ-ray pulsars . Although quite a variety of individual signatures is found for these pulsars, some general characteristic...
متن کاملGamma Ray Pulsars: Observations
High-energy gamma rays are a valuable tool for studying particle acceleration and radiation in the magnetospheres of energetic pulsars. The six or more pulsars seen by CGRO/EGRET show that: the light curves usually have double-peak structures (suggesting a broad cone of emission); gamma rays are frequently the dominant component of the radiated power; and all the spectra show evidence of a high...
