PULSED GAMMA RAYS FROM THE MILLISECOND PULSAR J0030+0451 WITH THE<i>FERMI</i>LARGE AREA TELESCOPE

We report the discovery of gamma-ray pulsations from the nearby isolated millisecond pulsar (MSP) PSR J0030+0451 with the Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST). This discovery makes PSR J0030+0451 the second MSP to be detected in gamma rays after PSR J0218+4232, observed by the EGRET …
