射电脉冲星正交偏振模的脉动模型

A Pulsational Model for the Orthogonal Polarization Modes in Radio Pulsars

J. Christopher Clemens, R. Rosen

摘要:

在早期的论文中,我们介绍了一个模型,其中的非径向振荡的高球度(\el)对准旋转的中子星的磁轴能够重现子脉冲,就像在脉冲星强度的单脉冲测量中观察到的。该模型没有解决偏振问题,而偏振是脉冲星发射的一个组成部分。观测表明,许多类星体发射的无线电波似乎是两个具有正交偏振角的线性偏振发射模式的叠加。在本文中,我们扩展我们的模型,将线性偏振。和以前一样,我们提出恒星物质的脉动位移调制脉冲星发射,但现在我们将这种调制应用于线性偏振发射模式,就像曲率辐射可能产生的那样。我们进一步引入第二偏振模式,正交的第一,这是调制的脉动速度。我们将这些模式叠加在一起,模拟观测到的斯托克斯参数在射电望远镜。

英文摘要:

In an earlier paper, we introduced a model for pulsars in which non-radial oscillations of high spherical degree (\el) aligned to the magnetic axis of a spinning neutron star were able to reproduce subpulses like those observed in single-pulse measurements of pulsar intensity. The model did not address polarization, which is an integral part of pulsar emission. Observations show that many pulsars emit radio waves that appear to be the superposition of two linearly polarized emission modes with orthogonal polarization angles. In this paper, we extend our model to incorporate linear polarization. As before, we propose that pulsational displacements of stellar material modulate the pulsar emission, but now we apply this modulation to a linearly-polarized mode of emission, as might be produced by curvature radiation. We further introduce a second polarization mode, orthogonal to the first, that is modulated by pulsational velocities. We combine these modes in superposition to model the observed Stokes parameters in radio pulsars.
