- Outer Gap Models:
- Gamma-Ray Pulsar Emission Models: Outer Gap Models, by Alice K. Harding. (Net Advance of Physics Gateway Review)
- Gamma-Ray Pulsars: Beaming Evolution, Stats and Unidentified EGRET Sources, by I.-A. Yadigaroglu and R. W. Romani, 94/12 Calculates expected flux of gamma-rays as a function of age in outer gap model, and from this predicts the gamma-ray output of known radio pulsars and the pulsar nature of many unidentified EGRET sources.
- Gamma-Ray Pulsars: Emission Zones and Viewing Geometries, by R. W. Romani and I.-A. Yadigaroglu, 94/01 Calculates pattern of high energy photon emission in the sky, assuming outer gap model holds; also tries to explain optical polarization sweep of Crab pulsar. Computer animation to illustrate geometry.

Rotation-Powered Pulsars, by J. Chiang and R. W. Romani, 94/01
