Abstract
We report here a possible detection of weak pulsed radio emission from Gemi nga on 1997 June 19, as evident from the observed power spectrum and the fo lded pulse profile. The observations were made with the Rajkot radio telesc ope at 103 MHz. Our observations show the presence of an average pulse stre ngth at about 1 Jy level, with a pulse period of 237.10 ms and an interpuls e of comparable intensity at 0.5 phase.
