Scientific paper

The Compton Imaging Telescope (COMPTEL) observed at an early stage of the Compton-Gamma Ray Observatory (C-GRO) sky survey pulsed emission from the two classical gamma-ray pulsars, Crab and Vela. Further efforts were necessary to detect one of the four new pulsars detected by the other C-GRO instruments, namely PSR 1509-58. These are the only three pulsars detected so far at an energy of 1 MeV. In spite of the similarity of their timing parameters, the Crab pulsar and PSR 1509-58 display very different characteristics in their MeV emissions, observed by COMPTEL.
