Abstract: | A total of eight gamma-ray sources are identified with pulsars and these include some of the strongest gamma-ray sources in
the sky. About 20 of the unidentified gamma-ray sources are very likely to be associated with currently known pulsars and
there is little doubt that many of the others, at least those at low Galactic latitudes, will ultimately be identified with
pulsars. How many of these and future gamma-ray detections will be detectable at radio wavelengths depends on the details
of the radio and gamma-ray beaming. There is good evidence that the radio beams in young and millisecond pulsars are very
wide, implying that most gamma-ray pulsars will be detectable in the radio band. |
