Scientific paper

The supernova remnant N157B was in the field of view during an observation of the LMC with the BeppoSAX satellite. A signal with a 16 ms periodicity was detected in the MECS data. The pulse profile is characterized by a single narrow peak with a flux of (5.1 +/- 1.1) x 10(-13) ergcm(-2) s(-1) . In this paper the dynamical state of the plerion-shell system is discussed, and inferences are drawn on the optical luminosity of the pulsar and the plerion.
