dc.descriptionThe data for VHE (~TeV) gamma rays from young gamma-ray pulsar PSR1509-58 observed in 1996 with the CANGAROO 3.8m Cerenkov imaging telescope are presented, as well as the additional data from March to June of 1997. The high spin-down luminosity of the pulsar and the plerionic feature around the pulsar observed with radio and X-rays suggest that VHE gamma-ray emission is quite likely above the sensitivity of the CANGAROO telescope. The CANGAROO results on other pulsars, such as PSR1259-63, are also presented. PSR1259-63 is a highly eccentric X-ray binary system, which includes a high mass Be companion star, and a preliminary analysis on the data taken 4 months after the periastron in 1994 suggests emission of VHE gamma rays.
