Possible discovery of threeγ-ray pulsars

Yu, K. N.; Young, E. C. M.; Lu, Tan +1 more

The possible discovery of threeγ-ray pulsars 0656 + 14, 0950 + 08, and 1822 - 09 based on COS-B data analysis is reported. Their light curves, the other related features, and the methods leading to these results are also given. Among these three pulsars, PSR 0656 + 14 is the most significant one for being aγ-ray pulsar.

Are PSR 0656+14, PSR 0950+08, and PSR 1822-09 gamma-ray pulsars?

Brown, Lawrence E.; Hartmann, Dieter H.

The possible discovery of three new γ-ray pulsars PSR 0656+14, PSR 0950+08, and PSR 1822-09 (Ma, Lu, Yu, and Young, 1993) in data obtained with the COS-B experiment is reinvestigated using a refined technique for pulsar light curve analysis. The results of this study do not confirm the previously claimed γ-ray pulsar nature of any of these pulsars…
