\end{center}

% In the following statements, replace "Abstract of the talk"
% with your abstract.

\noindent

I will discuss  the statistical  problem of detecting periodicity in a sequence of photon arrival times.  This occurs, for example,  in attempting to detect gamma-ray pulsars. A particular focus is on how auxiliary information, typically source intensity, background intensity,  and incidence angles and energies associated with each photon arrival should be used to maximize the detection power. I will present  a class of likelihood-based tests, score tests, which give rise to event weighting in a principled and natural way, and derive expressions quantifying the power of the tests.
