Broad-Band Model Spectra of Gamma-Ray Emission from Millisecond Pulsars
Abstract
We present spectra of pulsed gamma-ray emission expected from millisecond pulsars within the framework of polar-cap models. The spectra are a superposition of three components due to curvature (CR), synchrotron (SR), and Compton upscattering (ICS) processes. The CR component dominates below 100 GeV and the ICS component exhibits a peak at 1 TeV. The CR component should be observable from J0437-4715 with the next generation gamma-ray telescopes, like e.g. GLAST.
