To the Origin of Anomalous Torque Acting on a Rotating Magnetized Ball in Vacuum

V. S. Beskin, A. A. Zheltoukhov, A. K. Obukhova +1

The magnitude of the anomalous torque acting on a rotating magnetized ball in vacuum is specified. Its value is shown to depend on the magnetic field structure inside the body.

Cosmic ray positrons from a local, middle-aged supernova remnant

Anatoly Erlykin, Arnold Wolfendale

We argue that the cosmic ray positron excess observed in ATIC-2, Fermi LAT, PAMELA, HESS and recently in the precision AMS-02 experiment can be attributed to the production in a lo…

Radio pulsars: the search for truth

V. S. Beskin, Ya. N. Istomin, A. A. Philippov

It was as early as the 1980s that A V Gurevich and his group proposed a theory to explain the magnetosphere of radio pulsars and the mechanism by which they produce coherent radio…
