In the canonical picture of pulsars, radio emission arises from a narrow cone centered on the star's magnetic axis but many basic details remain unclear. We use high-quality polarization data taken with the Parkes radio telescope to…

Many radio sources like quasars, blazars, radio galaxies, and micro-quasars exhibit circular polarisation (CP) with surprising temporal persistent handedness. As a possible explanation we propose that the CP is due to Faraday conversion…

It has been argued that certain broad absorption line quasars are viewed within 35 degrees of the axis of a relativistic radio jet, based on two-epoch radio flux density variability. It is true if the surface brightness of a radio source is…

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…

A relativistic radio component, which moves in a direction close to the sky plane, will increase in flux density when it decelerates. This effect is the basis for the qualitative model for GPS galaxies we present in this paper, which can…
