Description

We present three new binary pulsars discovered during a search for pulsations in 56 unidentified mid-latitude EGRET gamma-ray error boxes with the Parkes multibeam receiver. Timing observations of these sources is on-going with both the Parkes and the Green Bank telescopes. We discuss the place of these new systems in the population of binary pulsars and suggest that they are all somewhat atypical systems.
