<h2>EGRET Observations of Pulsars</h2>
<h3>to be published in the proceedings of the Third Compton Symposium</h3>
EGRET can now study six pulsars since the recent detection of
PSR B1951+32.  Careful analysis of the three brightest pulsars shows 
that gamma rays are emitted through essentially the entire rotation.
This calls into question the previous interpretation of the Crab's
low-level emission as due entirely to its nebula.  The pulse light 
curves have either well-separated double peaks or very broad peaks 
which might be resolved into multiple components.  The spectra are 
consistent with power laws over a large portion of the EGRET energy 
range, and many show a dropoff at a few GeV.

the individual figures.
