Pulse Emission from the Light Cylinder
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Extract
The light cylinder is the second most popular location for pulsar emission. The fact that it has a sizable following, and yet is not the most popular location, is due to many aspects of light cylinder models. They have several advantages in explaining the pulsar phenomenon, but they have been little developed. This is mainly because they deal with the light cylinder, where our general ignorance of magnetospheric structure is greatest. Although light cylinder models have had considerable success in explaining the optical radiation from the Crab and Vela pulsars, I will restrict this paper to a discussion of radio pulsars.
