Scientific paper

The authors have measured the right ascension of Geminga at different epochs by comparing the absolute phases between the different γ-ray observations. These values show that the right-ascension component of the proper motion of Geminga is 0.226±0.03 arcsec per year, which is consisten with that of G″ the most probable optical counterpart, thus independently confirming the correspondence between G″and Geminga.
