Properties of the linearly polarized radiation from PSR B 0950 + 08

چکیده
Measurements of average pulse profiles made with a single linear polarization over the range 41–112 MHz are presented for PSR B0950+08. We show that the observed variable structure of the pulse profiles is a result of Faraday sinusoidal modulation of the pulse intensity with frequency. The rotation measure corresponding to this effect, RM ≈ 4 rad m −2 , is about 3 times greater than the published value of RM = 1.35 rad m −2 (Taylor et al. 1993).

Subaru optical observations of the old pulsar PSR B 0950 + 08 ⋆
We report the B band optical observations of an old (τ ∼ 17.5 Myr) radiopulsar PSR B0950+08 obtained with the Suprime-Cam at the Subaru telescope. We detected a faint object, B=27. 07±0.16. Within our astrometrical accuracy it coincides with the radio position of the pulsar and with the object detected earlier by Pavlov et al. (1996) in UV with the HST/FOC/F130LP. The positional coincidence and...
متن کاملThe Effect of Polarized Laser Radiation on Viscoelastic Properties of Soft Tissue
Background: Laser-tissue interaction on low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has widespread medical applications (e.g., improved wound healing). The tensile strength of radiated tissue by LLLT is known to be increased mainly because of cross collagen bands developed after radiation.Objective: In this work, we studied the instantaneous effect of radiation of polarized laser beam on the viscoelastic ti...

A model is proposed for the observed combination of power-law and thermal emission of keV X-rays from rotationally powered pulsars. For γ-ray pulsars with accelerators very many stellar radii above the neutron star surface, 100 MeV curvature γ-rays from e − or e + flowing starward out of such accelerators are converted to e ± pairs on closed field lines all around the star. These pairs strongly...
متن کاملEffect of slip and variable thermal boundary conditions on hydromagnetic mixed convection flow and heat transfer from a non-linearly stretching surface
The effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the MHD mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. The velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. Thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...

We have investigated the radio emission from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0–5408 (PSR J1550– 5418) using the Parkes telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The flux density of the pulsar is roughly the same between 1.4 and 45 GHz, but shows time variability. The radiation is nearly 100% linearly polarized between frequencies of 45 and 3.2 GHz, but from 2.3 to 1.4 GHz it becom...
