Electron positron pair flow and current composition in the pulsar magnetosphere
Gabriele Brambilla, Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Andrey Timokhin +2
We performed ab-initio Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations of a pulsar magnetosphere with electron-positron plasma produced only in the regions close to the neutron star surface. We…
3D Kinetic Pulsar Magnetosphere Models: Connecting to Gamma-Ray Observations
Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Gabriele Brambilla, Andrey Timokhin +2
We present 3D global kinetic pulsar magnetosphere models, where the charged particle trajectories and the corresponding electromagnetic fields are treated self-consistently. For ou…
Fermi Gamma-Ray Pulsars: Understanding the High-Energy Emission from Dissipative Magnetospheres
Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Alice K. Harding, Demosthenes Kazanas +1
Based on the Fermi observational data we reveal meaningful constraints for the dependence of the macroscopic conductivity of dissipative pulsar magnetosphere models on the co…
Testing dissipative magnetosphere model light curves and spectra with FERMI pulsars
Gabriele Brambilla, Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Alice K. Harding +1
We explore the emission properties of a dissipative pulsar magnetosphere model introduced by Kalapotharakos et al. (2014), comparing its high energy light curves and spectra, due t…
