Scientific paper

In systems containing pulsars, one may expect sufficient particle acceleration to produce extremely energetic photons. Reports of very high energy emission from such systems (Crab Nebula, PSR B1706-44, Vela, Centaurus X-3) have sparked recent interest. We present results from a search for very high energy photons (E > 350 GeV) emitted from isolated pulsars and pulsars in binary systems utilizing the Whipple 10 m atmospheric Cherenkov telescope. Our results are compared with predictions of high energy emission from pulsar systems.
