Scientific paper

Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have been firmly established as a class of high-energy, >0.1 GeV, emitters via the detection of pulsations, using radio timing solutions, of at least nine MSPs with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The LAT data suggest that the emission mechanisms in gamma-ray MSPs are the same as those powering younger gamma-ray pulsars. We will present the MSP results from the LAT including the implications from the LAT detection of gamma-ray emission from the globular cluster 47 Tucanae, which hosts at least twenty-three radio-loud MSPs.
