GRO: Studies of high energy pulsars with EGRETA reported e(+/-) annihilation line from the Crab pulsar is described on in this annual report, along with a astronomical model that was investigated theoretically and that displays all of the following properties discovered about this line:very strong (approximately 10(exp 40)e(+/-) annihilations/sec); redshifted (by about 70 KeV relative to mc(exp 2) = 511 KeV); and very narrow (width approximately 10 KeV). A draft of the paper based on this research entitled, 'Pair production in the magnetosphere of the Crab pulsar and a pulsed e(+/-) annihilation gamma-ray line' is included.
