Abstract
More than 10 years ago, an excess of γ-ray photons coming from the Galactic center was discovered in the Fermi-LAT data. First attributed to dark matter, it has since been shown that it should have at least a partial stellar origin. One hypothesis is the presence of a population of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) confined in the Galactic bulge. We here present our recent progress in the selection of MSP candidates.
