Radio Emission by Soliton Formation in Relativistically Hot Streaming Pulsar Pair Plasmas

نویسندگان

چکیده

A number of possible pulsar radio emission mechanisms are based on streaming instabilities in relativistically hot electron-positron pair plasmas. At saturation the unstable waves can form, principle, stable solitary which could emit observed intense signals. We searched for proper plasma parameters would lead to formation solitons, investigated their properties and dynamics as well resulting oscillations electrons positrons possibly leading wave emission. utilized a one-dimensional version relativistic Particle-in-Cell code ACRONYM initialized with an appropriately parameterized Maxwell-J\"uttner velocity space particle distribution study evolution instability plasma. found that strong electrostatic superluminal L-mode solitons formed plasmas normalized inverse temperatures $\rho \geq 1.66$ or relative beam drift speeds Lorentz factors $\gamma > 40$. The fulfill conditions. For appropriate energy densities reach up $1.1 \times 10^5$ erg$\cdot$cm$^{-3}$, while those subluminal only $1.2 10^4$ erg$\cdot$cm$^{-3}$. Estimated $7 10^{12}$ erg$\cdot$cm$^{-3}$ suffice explain nanoshots.

Pulsar 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...

Depolarization 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.

Nature of microstructure in pulsar radio emission

We present a model for microstructure in pulsar radio emission. We propose that micropulses result from the alteration of the radio wave generation region by nearly transverse drift waves propagating across the pulsar magnetic field and encircling the bundle of the open magnetic field lines. It is demonstrated that such waves can modify significantly curvature of these dipolar field lines. This...

Radio Emission Signatures in the Crab Pulsar

Our high time resolution observations of individual pulses from the Crab pulsar show that both the time and frequency signatures of the interpulse are distinctly different from those of the main pulse. Main pulses can occasionally be resolved into short-lived, relatively narrow-band nanoshots. We believe these nanoshots are produced by soliton collapse in strong plasma turbulence. Interpulses a...

Polarization Patterns in Pulsar Radio Emission

A variety of intriguing polarization patterns are created when polarization observations of the single pulses from radio pulsars are displayed in a twodimensional projection of the Poincaré sphere. In many pulsars, the projections produce two clusters of data points that reside at antipodal points on the sphere. The clusters are formed by fluctuations in polarization amplitude that are parallel...
