Winds, B-fields, and Magnetotails of Pulsars
We investigate the emission of rotating magnetized neutron stars due to the acceleration and radiation of particles in the relativistic wind and in the magnetotail of the star. We consider that the charged particles are accelerated by driven collisionless reconnection. Outside of the light cylinder, the star’s rotation acts to wind up the magnetic field to form a predominantly azimuthal, slowly...
متن کاملStudying Ism Magnetic Fields and Turbulent Regimes from Polarimetric Maps
Polarimetric maps have been used for the characterization of the magnetic field in molecular clouds. However, it is difficult to determine the 3-dimensional properties of these regions from the projected maps. For that reason, numerical simulations can be used as benchmarks for polarimetric measurements, and eventually reveal more about the interplay of turbulence and the magnetic field lines. ...
متن کاملMeasuring the Similarity of Vector Fields Using Global Distributions
Sensors such as video surveillance and weather monitoring systems record a significant amount of dynamic data which are represented by vector fields. We present a novel algorithm to measure the similarity of vector fields using global distributions that capture both vector field properties (e.g., vector orientation) and relational geometric information (e.g., the relative positions of two vecto...
متن کاملPhoton Splitting in the Superstrong Magnetic Fields of Pulsars
We discuss the polarization selection rules for splitting of the two principal electromagnetic modes that propagate in a vacuum polarized by a superstrong magnetic field (B > 0.1Bcr ' 4 × 10 G). We show that below the threshold of free pair creation the selection rules found by Adler in the limit of weak dispersion remain unaffected by taking the resonant effects into consideration, i.e., split...
متن کاملNeutron Stars in X-ray Pulsars and Their Magnetic Fields
Estimates of the magnetic field of neutron stars in X-ray pulsars are obtained using the hypothesis of the equilibrium period for disk and wind accretion and also from the BATSE data on timing of X-ray pulsars using the observed maximum spin-down rate. Cyclotron lines at energies ≥ 100 keV in several Be-transient are predicted for future observations. We suggest a new method of estimating dista...
