An empirical model for the polarization of pulsar radio emission
D. Melrose, A. Miller, A. Karastergiou +1
We present an empirical model for single pulses of radio emission from pulsars based on gaussian probability distributions for relevant variables. The radiation at a specific pulse…
Depolarization of radio bursts due to reflection off sharp boundaries in the solar corona
D. B Melrose
It is argued that depolarization of solar radio bursts requires reflection off boundary layers no thicker than about a wavelength (a few meters at most) between regions with large…
Quark stars within relativistic models
D. P. Menezes, C. Providencia, D. B. Melrose
Lately, it has been suggested that strange (quark) stars can be responsible for glitches and other observational features of pulsars. Some discussions on whether quark stars, if re…
Strange star equations of state revisited
D. P. Menezes, D. B. Melrose
Motivated by recent suggestions that strange stars can be responsible for glitches and other observational features of pulsar, we review some possible equations of state and their…
On the origin of the drifting subpulses in radio pulsars
G. Gogoberidze, G. Z. Machabeli, D. Melrose +1
A model for the main observational characteristics of the radio emission of pulsars with well organized drifting subpulses is presented. We propose that drifting subpulses result f…
Large-Amplitude, Pair-Creating Oscillations in Pulsar and Black Hole Magnetospheres
Amir Levinson, Don Melrose, Alex Judge +1
A time-dependent model for pair creation in a pulsar magnetosphere is developed. It is argued that the parallel electric field that develops in a charge-starved region (a gap) of a…
