ASCA's long look at the 288 millisecond radio pulsar, PSR J0631+1036, reveals coherent X-ray pulsation from this source for the first time. The source was first detected in the serendipitous Einstein observation and later identified as a…
Guillemot et al. recently reported the discovery of $\gamma$-ray pulsations from the 22.7ms pulsar (pulsar A) in the famous double pulsar system J0737-3039A/B. The $\gamma$-ray light curve (LC) of pulsar A has two peaks separated by…
We present the results of new Agile observations of PSR B1509-58 performed over a period of 2.5 years following the detection obtained with a subset of the present data. The modulation significance of the lightcurve above 30 MeV is at a…
Radio pulsar PSR J1028-5819 was recently discovered in a high-frequency search (at 3.1 GHz)in the error circle of the EGRET source 3EG J1027-5817. The spin-down power of this young pulsar is great enough to make it very likely the…
We have performed a Monte-Calro simulation for Galactic population of pulsars and for the $\gamma$-ray observations. We apply outer gap model for the $\gamma$-ray emission process, and study the radiation characteristics as a function of…
(abridged) Thanks to the recent discovery by Fermi of about fifty new gamma-ray pulsars, it becomes possible to look for statistical properties of their pulsed high-energy emission, especially their light-curves and phase-resolved spectra.…
We report on the likely detection of pulsed high-energy gamma-rays from the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232 in 100-1000 MeV data from CGRO EGRET. Imaging analysis demonstrates that the highly significant gamma-ray source 2EG…
We have obtained evidence of gamma-ray emission above 1 TeV from PSR1706-44, using a ground-based telescope of the atmospheric \v{C}erenkov imaging type located near Woomera, South Australia. This object, a $\gamma$-ray source discovered by…
We detected a nearby (d=360 pc), old (5 Myr) pulsar B1133+16 with Chandra. The observed pulsar's flux is $(0.8\pm 0.2)\times 10^{-14}$ ergs cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ in the 0.5-8 keV band. Because of the small number of counts detected, the…
We report the first detection of pulsed X-ray emission from the young, energetic radio and Gamma-ray pulsar PSR B1706-44. We find a periodic signal at a frequency of f = 9.7588088 +/- 0.0000026 Hz (at epoch 51585.34104 MJD), consistent with…
We report the discovery of gamma-ray pulsations (> 0.1 GeV) from the young radio and X-ray pulsar PSR J0205+6449 located in the Galactic supernova remnant 3C 58. Data in the gamma-ray band were acquired by the Large Area Telescope aboard…
Previous observations of the middle-aged $\gamma$-ray, X-ray, and radio pulsar B1055-52 indicated some peculiarities, such as a suspected changing of the X-ray flux and spectral parameters, a large excess of the alleged thermal component of…
We compare radio profile widths of young, energetic gamma-ray-detected and non-gamma-ray-detected pulsars. We find that the latter typically have wider radio profiles, with the boundary between the two samples exhibiting a dependence on the…
Millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232 shows remarkable high-energy properties: very hard pulsed X-ray emission up to ~10 keV and a likely detection of high-energy gamma-rays (> 100 MeV) with a soft spectrum. The relative phasing of the X-ray…
We report the results from X-ray and hard X-ray observations of the PSR B1259-63/SS 2883 system with the ASCA and CGRO satellites, performed between 1995 February and 1996 January when the pulsar was near apastron. The system was clearly…
Observations and theoretical studies have demonstrated that the pulsed spectra of all gamma-ray pulsars terminate at energies below a few hundred GeV. In most cases we expect this cutoff energy E_o to be around 10 GeV. Only with next…
We derive light curves for the hard gamma-ray emission, at energies up to several TeV, expected from the unique pulsar/Be-star binary system PSR B1259-63. This is the only known system in our galaxy in which a radio pulsar is orbiting a…
For more than 15 years, since the days of the Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on board the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (CGRO; 1991-2000), it has remained an open question why the prominent blazar 3C 345 was not reliably…
We report on very high energy gamma-observations with the MAGIC Telescope of the pulsar PSR B1951+32 and its associated nebula, CTB 80. Our data constrain the cutoff energy of the pulsar to be less than 32 GeV, assuming the pulsed gamma-ray…
