We assume that the relativistic sources moving along the dipolar magnetic field lines emit curvature radiation. The beamed emission occurs in the direction of tangents to the field lines, and to receive it, the sight line must align with…
We have conducted a detailed analysis of the emission geometry of a handful of radio pulsars that have prominent, multiple-component profiles at meter wavelengths. From careful determination of the total number of emission components and…
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…
We have analyzed high-quality single pulse data of PSR B0329+54 at 325 MHz and 606 MHz to study the structure of the emission beam. Using the window-threshold technique, which is suitable for detecting weak emission components, we have…
We present an analytical treatment of the pulsar radio emission height as a function of phase based on a set of simplifying assumptions. Assuming a dipole field geometry, the emission height can be expressed as a function of phase and the…
The radiation by relativistic plasma particles is beamed in the direction of field line tangents in the corotating frame, but in an inertial frame it is aberrated toward the direction of rotation. We have revised the relation of aberration…
Super-sensitive observations of bright pulsars by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) have revealed weak radio emission continuously emerged in the rotation phases between the main pulse and interpulse of an…
We present a new method for investigating emission altitudes of radio pulsar core and conal components by attributing them different altitudes and by providing a framework to understand the resulting longitude offsets between them which are…
Using the outer gap model, we investigate the emission region for the multi-wavelength light curve from energetic pulsars. We assume that gamma-ray and non-thermal X-ray photons are emitted from a particle acceleration region in the outer…
We have developed a method to compute the possible distribution of radio emission regions in a typical pulsar magnetosphere, taking into account the viewing geometry and rotational effects of the neutron star. Our method can estimate the…
In the standard picture of radio pulsars, the radio emission arises from a set of open magnetic field lines, the extent of which is primarily determined by the pulsar's spin period, P, and the emission height. We have used a database of…
This paper presents a method of estimation of emission altitudes using observational data - precise measurements of pulse profile widths at low intensity level. The analysis of emission altitudes obtained using this method for a large…
The pulsar profile is characterised by two distinct emission components, the core and the cone. The standard model of a pulsar radio emission beam originating from dipolar magnetic fields, places the core at the centre surrounded by…
We present a geometric study of the radio and gamma-ray pulsar B1055-52 based on recent observations at the Parkes radio telescope. We conclude that the pulsar's magnetic axis is inclined at an angle of 75 degrees to its rotation axis and…
A model for slow radio pulsars is proposed which involves the entire magnetosphere in the production of the observed radio emission. It is argued that observations of pulsar profiles suggest that a feedback mechanism exists between the star…
Motivated by recent results on the location of the radio emission in pulsar magnetospheres, we have developed a model which can account for the large diversity found in the average profile shapes of pulsars. At the centre of our model lies…
This work is a continuation of two previous papers of a series, in which we examined the pulse-width statistics of normal radio pulsars. In the first paper we compiled the largest ever database of pulsars with interpulses in their mean…
Recent operation of LOFAR by Hassall et al has produced severe constraints on the size and altitude of the 40 MHZ emission region in this pulsar. It is shown that these limits, given a limited number of unexceptionable assumptions,…
Precursors and postcursors (PPCs) are rare emission components detected in a handful of pulsars that appear beyond the main pulse emission, in some cases far away from it. In this paper we attempt to characterize the PPC emission in…
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…
