A Generic Pulsar Radio Emission Mechanism
A generic interpretation of pulsar radio emission that does not rely on the identification of a specific emission mechanism is explored. Coherence is quantified in terms of a coherence factor, which implies a maximum brightness temperature; the possible significance of Poincaré invariants is pointed out, and the potential use of higher order moments of the intensity to measure the coherence is ...
متن کاملNew mechanism of pulsar radio emission.
It is shown that pulsar radio emission can be generated effectively through a streaming motion in the polar-cap regions of a pulsar magnetosphere causing non-resonant growth of waves that can escape directly. As in other beam models, a relatively low-energy high-density beam is required. The instability generates quasitransverse waves in a beam mode at frequencies that can be well below the res...
متن کاملCherenkov-Curvature Radiation and Pulsar Radio Emission Generation
Electromagnetic processes associated with a charged particle moving in a strong circular magnetic field are considered in cylindrical coordinates. We investigate the relation between the vacuum curvature emission and Cherenkov emission and argue that, for the superluminal motion of a particle in the inhomogeneous magnetic field in a dielectric, the combined effects of magnetic field inhomogenei...
متن کاملPulsar spectra of radio emission
We have collected pulsar flux density observations and compiled spectra of 281 objects. The database of Lorimer et al. (1995) has been extended to frequencies higher than 1.4 GHz and lower than 300 MHz. Our results show that above 100 MHz the spectra of the majority of pulsars can be described by a simple power law with average value of spectral index < α >= −1.8 ± 0.2. A rigorous analysis of s...
متن کاملDepolarization of Pulsar Radio Emission.
We show that intensity-dependent depolarization of single pulses may be due to the nonlinear decay of the "upper" ordinary (O) mode into an unpolarized extraordinary mode and a backward-propagating wave. The decay occurs in the innermost parts of the pulsar magnetosphere for obliquely propagating O waves.
