Polar cap plasma loading and the morphology of pulsar -ray light curves
Jérôme Pétri
The discovery of more than 300 -ray pulsars by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) has revealed a rich diversity of light-curve morphologies that remains challenging to r…
High-energy radiation from the pulsar Equatorial Current Sheet
Ioannis Contopoulos, Jerome Petri, Ioannis Dimitropoulos
Pulsars emit beams of radiation that reveal the extreme physics of neutron star magnetospheres. Yet, their understanding remains incomplete. Recent global Particle-in-Cell (PIC) si…
Pulsed emission from a rotating off-centred magnetic dipole in vacuum
Anu Kundu, Jerome Petri
The topology of the electromagnetic field around neutron stars severely impacts pulsar physics. While most of the works assume a standard centred dipolar magnetic field model, rece…
Theory of pulsar magnetosphere and wind
J. Pétri
Neutron stars are fascinating astrophysical objects immersed in strong gravitational and electromagnetic fields, at the edge of our current theories. These stars manifest themselve…
High-energy emission from the pulsar striped wind: a synchrotron model for gamma-ray pulsars
J. Pétri
(abridged) Gamma-ray pulsars constitute a class of high and very high-energy emitters for which the known population is steadily increasing thanks to the Fermi/Large Area Telescope…
High-energy pulses and phase-resolved spectra by inverse Compton emission in the pulsar striped wind - Application to Geminga
J. Petri
(abridged) Although discovered 40 years ago, the emission mechanism responsible for the observed pulsar radiation remains unclear. However, the high-energy pulsed emission is usual…
Non-linear evolution of the diocotron instability in a pulsar electrosphere: 2D PIC simulations
J. Petri
(abridged) The physics of the pulsar magnetosphere near the neutron star surface remains poorly constrained by observations. Nevertheless it is believed that large vacuum gaps exis…
Polarization of high-energy pulsar radiation in the striped wind model
J. Petri, J. Kirk
The Stokes parameters of the pulsed synchrotron radiation produced in the striped pulsar wind model are computed and compared with optical observations of the Crab pulsar. We assum…
