Description
The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) is a satellite-based experiment designed to detect charged cosmic rays and gamma rays. It surveys the gamma-ray sky in the energy range from approximately 2 GeV to 10 TeV. Using a new gamma-ray selection algorithm and taking advantage of DAMPE’s excellent energy resolution, we obtain high-precision energy spectra for bright pulsars. In this work, we also provide point-spread function (PSF)-weighted pulsar light curves, generated with an extended version of the PINT timing software, adapted to our analysis needs. Pulsar fluxes are derived using updated instrument response functions (IRFs), calculated to reflect the new selection algorithm. All results presented here are based on nine years of DAMPE flight data.
