Extract

We have recently used the atmospheric air-shower Cerenkov technique in an attempt to observe pulsed gamma radiation from two southern pulsars, PSR 0833—45 and MP 0959. Northern hemisphere observers do not agree whether the pulsars CP 0950, CP 1133 and CP 1919 are sources of gamma emission, either pulsed or uniform in time.
