Pulsar Magnetospheres and Pulsar Winds
arXiv:1610.03365 · doi:10.1063/1.4968886
Abstract
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 tried to outline the main results obtained in this field. In addition to my talk, the possibility of particle acceleration due to different processes in the pulsar magnetosphere is discussed in more detail.
