Scientific paper

The EGRET high energy gamma ray telescope aboard the Compton Observatory satellite has detected four gamma ray pulsars at energies above 100 MeV. Based on simple considerations of spin-down luminosity and distance, PSR 1509-58 and PSR 1951+32 are also likely candidates for detection by EGRET. Pulsations from PSR 1509-58 have been observed at energies around 1 MeV by the OSSE and BATSE instruments. Upper limits, derived from EGRET observations, on both the pulsed and steady flux from these two sources will be reported.
