A new Fermi Gamma Ray Pulsar Catalog has just been published!

The latest catalog of gamma-ray pulsars discovered in data from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has just been published in the Astrophysical Journal (the article is linked here).

Einstein@Home and its methods (run on a dedicated computing cluster) have contributed 53 of the 294 confirmed pulsars listed in the catalog.  Even more impressive: about half of all pulsars ever discovered via their gamma-ray pulsations have been found by our project.

Congratulations to all of our Einstein@Home volunteers and scientists! 

Bruce Allen

Director, Einstein@Home

Exciting news, guys! !  Do we know if for the discovery of those new 53 GRP  we had any volunteer contribution or was solely done by the dedicated computing cluster of Einstein@home?

Out of the 53 gamma-ray pulsars, 39 were found with Einstein@Home, and 14 on Atlas, the compute cluster at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Hannover, Germany. More information (including a sky map of the pulsar discoveries) is available at https://www.aei.mpg.de/1083085/nasa-s-fermi-mission-nets-nearly-300-gamma-ray-pulsars-and-counting.

WOW!!  Absolutely fascinating  the fact that 39 of the GR pulsars have been discovered by Einstein@Home volunteers' computers!
i guess from the now running (and almost ending) FGRP5 search progress ??
