The prevalent view that the radio-loud gamma-ray pulsars have gamma-ray luminosities that exceed their radio luminosities by several orders of magnitude is based on the assumption that the decay with distance of their gamma-ray fluxes obeys…

Geminga is the second brightest persistent source in the GeV gamma-ray sky. Discovered in 1975 by SAS-2 mission, it was identified as a pulsar only in the 90s, when ROSAT detected the 237 ms X-ray periodicity, that was later also found by…
