Pulsar Physics without Magnetars
W. Kundt
Almost 40 years after the discovery of pulsars -- and despite a plethora of secured data on them -- pulsar theory is still beset by a number of fundamental inconsistencies. In this…
The Physics of E x B-Drifting Jets
Wolfgang Kundt, Gopal Krishna
It is argued that the physical jets consist of monoenergetic pairplasma performing almost lossfree ExB-drift. The observed broad power-law spectra result on collision with obstacle…
Gamma-Ray Bursts: their Sources
W. Kundt
My conviction is explained that none of the daily gamma-ray bursts comes from cosmic distances. In particular, nearby reflection nebulae have been mistaken for host galaxies.
Towards a consistent model for Neutron-Star Sources
W. Kundt
We are still far from understanding how pulsars pulse, how neutron stars are born, what neutron stars can emit, and in which way they do this. In this short communication, I list 1…
The Gold Effect: Odyssey of Scientific Research
Wolfgang Kundt
Seventy-nine physical problems are listed and explained with whose proposed solutions I do not agree. Such disagreements -- even though some of them may simply reflect our prelimin…
