Scientific paper

The high sensitivity of the Fermi Large Area Telescope has led to the discovery of 16 gamma-ray pulsars, found without the aid of radio ephemerides. Most of these blind search pulsars are either radio-faint or radio-quiet, and represent a population with a different set of observational biases than those inherent in radio pulsars. For example, they likely exhibit a broader range of inclinations relative to the magnetic axis, presenting an opportunity to study previously unobserved magnetospheric geometries. We present here energy-dependent light curves and phase-dependent spectral parameters of a selection of the blind search pulsars, and show there is significant variation in the cutoff energy with phase.
