Polarization of pulsar radiation in the two-pole caustic model and in the outer gap model

Abstract

We present linear polarization characteristics of pulsar radiation as predicted by two models of high-energy radiation from extended regions in the outer magnetosphere: the recently proposed two-pole caustic model, and the outer gap model.
