Since pulsars were discovered as emitters of bright coherent radio emission more than half a century ago, the cause of the emission has remained a mystery. In this Letter we demonstrate that coherent radiation can be directly generated in…
We consider the polarization behaviour of radio waves propagating through an ultrarelativistic highly magnetized electron-positron plasma in a pulsar magnetosphere. The rotation of magnetosphere gives rise to the wave mode coupling in the…

Radio pulsar polarization exhibits a number of complex phenomena that are classified into the realm of `beyond the rotating vector model' (RVM). It is shown that these effects can be understood in geometrical terms, as a result of coherent…
