Abstract
A new model for gamma-ray pulsars presented by Higgins & Henriksen is applied to the cases of the seven known gamma-ray pulsars. Those pulsa rs that are not presently observed in gamma-rays, but are candidates f or observation by the next generation of gamma-ray telescopes, are dis cussed. The case of millisecond pulsars is discussed, and it is shown that these objects should radiate at detectable levels, in opposition to the predictions of other gamma-ray pulsar models.
