Future Facilities for Gamma-Ray Pulsar Studies
D. J. Thompson
Pulsars seen at gamma-ray energies offer insight into particle acceleration to very high energies, along with information about the geometry and interaction processes in the magnet…
Chasing the second gamma-ray bright isolated neutron star: 3EG J1835+5918/RX J1836.2+5925
O. Reimer, K. T. S. Brazier, A. Carrami +3
The EGRET telescope aboard NASAs Compton GRO has repeatedly detected 3EG J1835+5918, a bright and steady source of high-energy gamma-ray emission with no identification suggested u…
High-Energy Gamma Rays from Neutron Stars in Supernova Remnants: From EGRET to GLAST
D. J. Thompson, S. W. Digel, P. L. Nolan +1
At least three pulsars in supernova remnants were detected at E > 100 MeV by EGRET on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Efforts to search for additional pulsars in the EGRET data…
The likely detection of pulsed high-energy gamma-ray emission from millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232
L. Kuiper, W. Hermsen, F. Verbunt +5
We report circumstantial evidence for the first detection of pulsed high-energy gamma-ray emission from a millisecond pulsar, PSR J0218+4232, using data collected with the Energeti…
Optically dim counterparts of hard X-ray selected AGNs
R. Maiolino, M. Salvati, L. A. Antonelli +9
We present near-IR photometry and imaging observations of a small sample of sources identified in the BeppoSAX 5-10 keV survey (HELLAS) which resolves ~ 20-30% of the X-ray backgro…
Likely detection of pulsed high-energy gamma-rays from millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232
L. Kuiper, W. Hermsen, F. Verbunt +4
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 demonstr…
