"The Second Fermi Large Area Telescope Catalog of Gamma-ray Pulsars" was submitted to the Astrophysical Journal Supplement on 7 May 2013.

The Here is the "tarball" of spectral and pulse profile results and ancillary data (14.5 Mb) described in detail in the paper (Appendix B) WILL SOON be available on this page , for the journal referees. Update, 18 May: It will be Monday or Tuesday. We will submit the catalog to the arXiv preprint server this weekend perhaps. Note that after journal submission we have continued to make improvements -- many small things have come to light as we built the online files, but nothing fundamental has changed.

We have posted the catalog at http://arxiv.org/abs/1305.4385Image Added and will update it with the journal referees' comments.

This 'confluence' page (internal wiki for the LAT team) This page will be superseded by

hosted by the Fermi Science Support Center at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, who will to assure the long-term maintenance of the electronic archive. A copy of the tarball will also be available from the ApJ servers. Update, 18 May -- draft page exists on the Goddard servers, link currently a "error 404 not found" until we open it to the public, after we finish reviewing the content.

Archive contents

The pulsar catalog consists of a primary FITS file containing information about all 117 pulsars. In addition, ancillary FITS files, one per pulsar, contain the lightcurve, spectrum, and timing information.The tarball will be H E R E (Elizabeth, edit this line!).

The tarball of files containing the pulsar catalog results and associated files released with the paper includes:
