36 Can the GeV excess be millisecond pulsars? best-fit to Fermi-detected MSPs spectral comparison GeV excess at high latitudes (data points) (circles = sources) MSP spectrum similar but too soft at low energies Hooper, Cholis, Linden, JSG, Slatyer
37 Can the GeV excess be millisecond pulsars? source count distribution ( b >10 deg) adopt a spatial model and luminosity function for the MSPs, calibrated to detections in radio base model can roughly account for the amplitude of Inner Galaxy excess, but strongly overpredicts number of Fermi-detected MSPs (circles = sources) Hooper, Cholis, Linden, JSG, Slatyer
38 Can the GeV excess be millisecond pulsars? Source count distribution Latitude dependence of excess data model (circles = sources) adjusting MSP model parameters to better reproduce the observed source counts leads to models that cannot explain the amplitude of the observed excess Hooper, Cholis, Linden, JSG, Slatyer
