The first Fermi Large Area Telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
The dramatic increase in the number of known gamma-ray pulsars since the launch of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST) offers the first opportunity to study a sizable population of these high-energy objects. ...
The Vela pulsar: results from the first year of Fermi LAT observations
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
We report on analysis of timing and spectroscopy of the Vela pulsar using 11 months of observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The intrinsic brightness of Vela at GeV energies ...
Discovery of pulsed γ-rays from PSR J0034-0534 with the Fermi Large Area Telescope: a case for co-located radio and γ-ray emission regions
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have been firmly established as a class of γ-ray emitters via the detection of pulsations above 0.1 GeV from eight MSPs by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Using 13 months of LAT data, ...
Probing the pulsar population of Terzan 5 via spectral modeling
(IOP Publishing, 2019)
Terzan 5 is the only Galactic globular cluster that has plausibly been detected at very high energies by the High Energy Stereoscopic System. It has an unexpectedly asymmetric very high energy morphology that is offset ...
Fermi Large Area Telescope observations of the Vela-X pulsar wind nebula
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
We report on gamma-ray observations in the off-pulse window of the Vela pulsar PSR B0833–45 using 11 months of survey data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). This pulsar is located in the 8° diameter Vela supernova ...
PSR J1907+0602: a radio-faint gamma-ray pulsar powering a bright TeV pulsar wind nebula
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
We present multiwavelength studies of the 106.6 ms γ-ray pulsar PSR J1907+06 near the TeV source MGRO J1908+06. Timing observations with Fermi result in a precise position determination for the pulsar of R.A. = 19h07m54fs7(2), ...
A population of gamma-ray emitting globular clusters seen with the Fermi Large Area Telescope
(EDP Sciences, 2010)
Context. Globular clusters with their large populations of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are believed to be potential emitters of high-energy gamma-ray emission. The observation of this emission provides a powerful tool to ...
Discovery of two millisecond pulsars in Fermi sources with the nançay radio telescope
(IOP Publishing, 2011)
We report the discovery of two millisecond pulsars in a search for radio pulsations at the positions of Fermi-Large Area Telescope sources with no previously known counterparts, using the Nan¸cay Radio Telescope. The two ...
Accelerating high-energy pulsar radiation codes
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
Curvature radiation (CR) is believed to be a dominant mechanism for creating gamma-ray emission from pulsars and is emitted by relativistic particles that are constrained to move along curved magnetic field lines. Additionally, ...
The second Fermi Large Area Telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2013)
This catalog summarizes 117 high-confidence ≥0.1 GeV gamma-ray pulsar detections using three years of data acquired by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi satellite. Half are neutron stars discovered using LAT data ...
