Conclusions (II)• Population studies are on-going in the <strong>Fermi</strong>-LAT collaboration in the <strong>of</strong>fpulsewindows <strong>of</strong> LAT pulsars• Several other candidates coincident with PWNe in the 1-year catalog• <strong>Observations</strong> <strong>of</strong> PWNe in the LAT energy range and multi-wavelengthstudies can be used to better constrain the structure and evolution <strong>of</strong>PWNe :• <strong>Fermi</strong>-LAT has sensitivity and resolution to probe underlyingelectron spectrum in crucial energy regimes In association with multi-frequency studies, <strong>Fermi</strong> will help toprovide new constraints on the emission models and physicalproperties <strong>of</strong> the nebula (magnetic field, photon target field forthe IC scattering, injection spectrum…)M.-H.
