Propagation effects in pulsar magnetospheres
Refraction and polarization transfer in an ultrarelativistic highly magnetized pulsar plasma are considered. Normal waves in the pulsar plasma are linearly polarized however circular polarization arises in the polarization limiting region if radiation propagates at an angle to the plane of the magnetic field lines. The rays go off this plane due to refraction or (and) due to rotation of the mag...
متن کاملPulsar Radiation and Quantum Gravity
Quantum gravity may lead to an energy dependence in the speed of light. The high energy radiation from gamma-ray pulsars can be used to place limits on such effects. We find that emission from the Crab pulsar at energies above 2 GeV trails that at 70–100 MeV by no more than 0.35 ms (95% confidence) and place a lower bound on the energy scale of quantum gravitational effects on the speed of ligh...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Wave Propagation in Pulsar Magnetospheres
A new nonlinear electromagnetic wave mode in a magnetized plasma is predicted. Its existence depends on the interaction of an intense circularly polarized electromagnetic wave with a plasma, where quantum electrodynamical photon–photon scattering is taken into account. This scattering gives rise to a new coupling between the matter and the radiation. Specifically, we consider an electron–positr...
متن کامل1 Frequency dependence of pulsar radiation patterns
We report on new results from simultaneous, dual frequency, single pulse observations of PSR B0329+54 using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. We find that the longitude separation of subpulses at two different frequencies (238 and 612 MHz) is less than that for the corresponding components in the average profile. A similar behaviour has been noticed before in a number of pulsars. We argue th...
متن کاملInfluence of Rotation on Pulsar Radiation Characteristics
We present a relativistic model for pulsar radio emission by including the effect of rotation on coherent curvature radiation by bunches. We find that rotation broadens the width of leading component compared to the width of trailing component. We estimate the component widths in the average pulse profiles of about 24 pulsars, and find that 19 of them have a broader leading component. We explai...
