Caption: Figure 8.

Normalized differential source significance (solid lines) for the disk population MSPs, showing the relative TS that would be accumulated at each energy if the instrument's effective area were flat. This identifies the optimal energy range for an instrument with a LAT-like PSF to operate for MSP observations. The units are arbitrary, but relative differences reflect the increased statistical significance accumulated with increased angular resolution. The dashed lines indicate the FWHM.
