We formulate variation principle for force-free magnetosphere of an inclined pulsar: ${\cal E} +{\bf \Omega}\cdot {\bf M}$ ($\cal E$, ${\bf M}$ are electromagnetic energy and angular momentum, ${\bf \Omega}$ is the angular velocity of a…
We argue that pulsars may be spin-polarized neutron stars, i.e. cosmic permanent magnets. This would simply explain several observational facts about pulsars, including the 'beacon effect' itself i.e. the static/stable misalignment of…
The extended $\gamma$-ray halos around pulsars are unique probe of transportation of high-energy electrons (and positrons) in vicinities of such pulsars. Observations of morphologies of several such halos indicate that particles diffuse…
A comparison between an analytical calculation of the polarizability of a mesoscopic interacting system in the random phase approximation and numerical exact diagonalization results is presented. While for weak interactions the analytical…

For rotation powered pulsars, the rate of change of the spin period is expected to be positive. On the other hand, for a clean binary system (where gravity is the only force acting on the pulsar) the rate of change of the orbital period is…
A new term describing interactions between charge and potentials may be added to the right hand side of the Einstein equations. In the proposed term an additional tensor has been introduced containing a charge density, analogous to the…

A charged particle traversing a plasma loses its energy to both plasma electrons and ions. We compute the energy partition, the fractions $E_e/E_0$ and $E_\smI/E_0$ of the initial energy $E_0$ of this `impurity particle' that are deposited…
The effect of spin of particles in the propagation of plasma waves is studied using a semi-classical kinetic theory for a magnetized plasma. We focus in the simple damping effects for the electrostatic wave modes besides Landau damping.…
We show how the electrical field inside the conductor changes as a function of the number of charged-particles. We show that the non-vanishing electrical field is concentrated near the surface of the conductor, at a shallow depth on the…
We discuss the role of gravitational corrections to the running of the electric charge through the evaluation of scattering amplitudes of charged particles in massless scalar electrodynamics. Computing the complete divergent part of the…
