Exept Geminga there could be other gamma ray pulsars with no radioemission, which are exhibited in EGRET observations as ordinary point-like sources [6]. Determination of pulsations in a hard gamma ray source is complicated by rareness of arriving quanta δt ≫ P, and their small total number. When the value of the period is known from other observations (radio or X-ray), timing analysis gives the possibility to find this periodicity also in a gamma region [1].
