Orientation Angles of a Pulsar's Polarization Vector
Mark M. McKinnon
A statistical model of the polarization of pulsar radio emission is used to derive the general statistics of a polarization vector's orientation angles. The theoretical distributio…
Pulsar Astrometry at the Microarcsecond Level
W. H. T. Vlemmings, S. Chatterjee, W. F. Brisken +12
Determination of pulsar parallaxes and proper motions addresses fundamental astrophysical questions. We have recently finished a VLBI astrometry project to determine the proper mot…
On the Excess Dispersion in the Polarization Position Angle of Pulsar Radio Emission
Mark M. McKinnon
The polarization position angles (PA) of pulsar radio emission occupy a distribution that can be much wider than what is expected from the average linear polarization and the off-p…
The Transition between Nonorthogonal Polarization Modes in PSR B2016+28 at 1404 MHz
Mark M. McKinnon
Polarization observations of the radio emission from PSR B2016+28 at 1404 MHz reveal properties that are consistent with two, very different, interpretations of the pulsar's viewin…
Three-Dimensional Statistics of Radio Polarimetry
Mark M. McKinnon
The measurement of radio polarization may be regarded as a three-dimensional statistical problem because the large photon densities at radio wavelengths allow the simultaneous dete…
