Breakdown of the Goldreich-Julian Relation in a Neutron Star

D. N. Sob'yanin

The electromagnetic field in a magnetized neutron star and the underlying volume charges and currents are found. A general case of a rigidly rotating neutron star with infinite con…

Statistics of interpulse radio pulsars - the key to solving the alignment/counter-alignment problem

Lev Arzamasskiy, Vasily Beskin, Khurram Pirov

At present, there are theoretical models of radio pulsar evolution which predict both the alignment, i.e., evolution of inclination angle between magnetic and rotational axes t…

Diffusion of charged particles in a stochastic force-free magnetic field

Ya. N. Istomin, A. M. Kiselev

We study diffusion of charged particles in stationary stochastic magnetic field with zero mean, . In the case when electric current is carri…

Pulsar Magnetospheres and Pulsar Winds

Vasily S. Beskin

Surprisingly, the chronology of nearly 50 years of the pulsar magnetosphere and pulsar wind research is quite similar to the history of our civilization. Using this analogy, I have…

On the deceleration of relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei I: Radiation drag

V. S. Beskin, A. V. Chernoglazov

Deceleration of relativistic jets from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) detected recently by MOJAVE team is discussed in connection with the interaction of the jet material with the e…

Time dependence of the electron and positron components of the cosmic radiation measured by the PAMELA experiment between July 2006 and December 2015

O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +52

Cosmic-ray electrons and positrons are a unique probe of the propagation of cosmic rays as well as of the nature and distribution of particle sources in our Galaxy. Recent measurem…

A large light-mass component of cosmic rays at 10^{17} - 10^{17.5} eV from radio observations

S. Buitink, A. Corstanje, H. Falcke +101

Cosmic rays are the highest energy particles found in nature. Measurements of the mass composition of cosmic rays between 10^{17} eV and 10^{18} eV are essential to understand whet…

The evolution of a supermassive retrograde binary embedded in an accretion disk

P. B. Ivanov, J. C. B. Papaloizou, S. -J. Paardekooper +1

In this note we discuss the main results of a study of a massive binary with unequal mass ratio, q, embedded in an accretion disk, with its orbital rotation being opposed to that o…

RadioAstron Observations of the Quasar 3C273: a Challenge to the Brightness Temperature Limit

Y. Y. Kovalev, N. S. Kardashev, K. I. Kellermann +17

Inverse Compton cooling limits the brightness temperature of the radiating plasma to a maximum of K. Relativistic boosting can increase its observed value, but apparent…

Magnetic field evolution of accreting neutron stars

Ya. N. Istomin, I. A. Semerikov

The flow of a matter, accreting onto a magnetized neutron star, is accompanied by an electric current. The closing of the electric current occurs in the crust of a neutron stars in…

Insights into the emission of the blazar 1ES 1011+496 through unprecedented broadband observations during 2011 and 2012

J. Aleksić, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +161

1ES 1011+496 was discovered in very high energy (VHE, E >100 GeV) -rays with MAGIC in 2007. The absence of simultaneous data at lower energies led to a rather incomp…

Polarization angle swings in blazars: The case of 3C 279

S. Kiehlmann, T. Savolainen, S. G. Jorstad +61

Over the past few years, several occasions of large, continuous rotations of the electric vector position angle (EVPA) of linearly polarized optical emission from blazars have been…
