    • The contribution of millisecond pulsars to the Galactic cosmic-ray lepton spectrum 

      Venter, Christo; Kopp, Andreas; Büsching, Ingo; Harding, Alice K.; Gonthier, Peter L. (Elsevier, 2015)
      Pulsars are believed to be sources of relativistic electrons and positrons. The abundance of detections of γγ-ray millisecond pulsars by Fermi Large Area Telescope coupled with their light curve characteristics that imply ...

    • The millisecond pulsar contribution to the rising positron fraction 

      Venter, Christo; Kopp, Andreas; Büsching, Ingo; Harding, Alice K.; Gonthier, Peter L. (Sissa Medialab, 2016)
      Pair cascades from millisecond pulsars (MSPs) may be a primary source of Galactic electrons and positrons that contribute to the increase in positron flux above 10 GeV as observed by PAMELA and AMS−02. The Fermi Large ...
