The sizes of pulsar radio pulses in the plane of the sky are determined. This is important not only in relation to the possibility of directly resolving the radio pulses spatially, but also for verifying and placing constraints on existing…
Plasma is capable of mediating the conversion of two pump photons into two different photons through a relativistic four-wave mixing nonlinearity. Spontaneously created photon pairs are emitted at symmetric angles with respect to the…
The perturbations such as rotation and PC--current have been believed to be greatly affecting the pulsar radio emission and polarization. The two effects have not been considered simultaneously in the literature, however, each one of these…
The nature of coherent radio emission is still challenging even after more than half a century of pulsar discovery, but it is generally a consensus that single-pulse observations are essential for probing the magnetospheric dynamics,…

The double pulsar system J0737-3039 appears associated with a continuous radio emission, nearly three times stronger than that of the two pulsars together. If such an emission comes from a tranparent cloud its spatial extent (> 10^13 cm)…
The long-standing assumption of symmetric radio emission beams from the two magnetic poles of pulsars is challenged by observational evidence of asymmetry and underfill. Direct testing of this symmetry remains difficult for most pulsars. As…
