There are now a half-dozen young pulsars detected in high-energy photo
ns by the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory, showing a variety of emission
efficiencies and pulse profiles. We present here a calculation of the
pattern of high-energy emission on the sky in a model which posits ga
mma-ray production by charge-depleted gaps in the outer magnetosphere.
This model accounts for the radio to gamma-ray pulse offsets of the k
nown pulsars, as well as the shape of the high-energy pulse profiles.
We also show that about one-third of emitting young radio pulsars will
not be detected due to beaming effects, while approximately 2.5 times
the number of radio-selected gamma-ray pulsars will be viewed only hi
gh energies. Finally we compute the polarization angle variation and f
ind that the previously misunderstood optical polarization sweep of th
e Crab pulsar arises naturally in this picture. These results strongly
support an outer magnetosphere location for the gamma-ray emission.
