  At least three pulsars in supernova remnants were detected at E > 100 MeV by
EGRET on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Efforts to search for additional
pulsars in the EGRET data have been unsuccessful due to limited statistics. An
example is the recently-discovered radio pulsar J2229+6114, where efforts to
search the EGRET data using several different methods failed to find
significant evidence of pulsation. The GLAST Large Area Telescope (LAT) will
have a much greater effective area and a narrower point-spread function than
EGRET. In addition, the field of view will be more than 4 times larger than
EGRET's, and the LAT will scan to avoid occultation by the earth, increasing by
a large factor the total number of photons detected. The greater rates of
photons from pulsar candidates and better discrimination of diffuse
interstellar emission will enhance the sensitivity of pulsation searches. These
improvements also offer the prospect of resolving point sources from extended
emission in some SNR to define the nature of the associations of EGRET sources
with SNR. Further, work with the GLAST LAT will benefit from ongoing
multiwavelength studies (e.g., for RX 1836.2+5925) that provide specific
candidate targets for gamma-ray studies.
