Hybrid Numerical Simulations of Pulsar Magnetospheres
Ioannis Contopoulos, Jerome Petri, Petros Stefanou
We continue our investigation of particle acceleration in the pulsar equatorial current sheet (ECS) that began with Contopoulos (2019) and Contopoulos & Stefanou (2019). Our basic…

A ring-of-fire in the pulsar magnetosphere
Ioannis Contopoulos, Petros Stefanou
Contopoulos 2019 proposed that a dissipation zone develops in the magnetosphere of young pulsars at the edge of the closed-line region beyond the light cylinder. This is necessary…
