An Explanation for Pulsar Mode Changing Phenomenon
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
There are three mechanisms to cause pulsar inner gap breakdown: the inverse Compton scattering (ICS) of the high energy particles off the thermal-peak photons, off the resonant-frequency photons and the curvature radiation (CR). The pulsar mode-changing phenomenon can be interpreted as a switching effect between the resonant ICS sparking mode and the thermal ICS sparking mode.
