Polarized synchrotron emission from the equatorial current sheet in gamma-ray pulsars
Benoît Cerutti, Jérémy Mortier, Alexander A. Philippov
Polarization is a powerful diagnostic tool to constrain the site of the high-energy pulsed emission and particle acceleration in gamma-ray pulsars. Recent particle-in-cell simulati…

Pulsar Magnetospheres: Beyond the Flat Spacetime Dipole
Samuel E. Gralla, Alexandru Lupsasca, Alexander Philippov
Most studies of the pulsar magnetosphere have assumed a pure magnetic dipole in flat spacetime. However, recent work suggests that the effects of general relativity are in fact of…
