Polarization of pulsar radiation in the two-pole caustic model and in the outer gap model
J. Dyks, A. K. Harding, B. Rudak
We present linear polarization characteristics of pulsar radiation as predicted by two models of high-energy radiation from extended regions in the outer magnetosphere: the recentl…
High-energy radiation from pulsars: a challenge to polar-cap models
B. Rudak, J. Dyks, T. Bulik
Spectacular results of pulsar observations in X-ray and gamma-ray domains gave a new boost to theoretical models of pulsar magnetospheric activity. A challenging aspect of these ef…
The Spectrum of the Millisecond Pulsar J0218+4232 - Theoretical Interpretations
J. Dyks, B. Rudak
We interpret the unique high-energy spectrum of the millisecond pulsar PSR J0218+4232 within polar cap scenarios. We show that the spectral data from BeppoSAX (Mineo et al.2000) an…
Neutron Stars as Sources of High Energy Particles - the case of RPP
B. Rudak
Highly magnetised rapidly spinning neutron stars are widely considered to be natural sites for acceleration of charged particles. Powerful acceleration mechanism due to unipolar in…
Gamma Ray Burst progenitors - a case for helium star mergers
Krzysztof Belczynski, Tomasz Bulik, Bronislaw Rudak
Recently much work in Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) studies was devoted to revealing the nature of outburst mechanism and to looking for GRB progenitors. Several types of progenitors were…
The Question of the Peak Separation in the Vela Pulsar
J. Dyks, B. Rudak, T. Bulik
We calculate gamma-ray spectra of pulsars for a set of electron acceleration models within the polar-cap scenario. We discuss our results in the light of the recent analysis (Kanba…
