We present the flux density measurements of the pulsars observed in the Meterwavelength single-pulse polarimetric emission survey. The average flux densities were estimated in 113 pulsars at two frequencies of 325 and 610 MHz using interferometric imaging. The average profile and single pulse emission in each pulsar were calibrated using the estimated flux density. We have used the flux calibrated average profile to study the variation of the spectral index across the emission beam in 21 pulsars where the core, inner cone and the outer conal components could be clearly identified. The central core component showed a steeper increase in emission at the lower frequency compared with conal emission, with an average difference in spectral index $δα_{core-cone}\sim-0.7$ between the core and the conal components in this frequency range. In contrast the inner conal components had positive difference in their spectral index compared to the outer cones with average difference $δα_{in-out}\sim+0.3$. The variation in the spectral index across the pulse window should provide valuable inputs for constraining the radio emission processes. The single pulse emission showed the presence of emission mode changing in 12 pulsars with 3 cases where the phenomenon is being reported for the first time. In addition we have also detected enhanced emission for short durations or flaring, in parts or across the entire emission window in 14 pulsars. The sudden changes in the emission during mode changing as well as these bursting states are unrelated to the emission mechanism and suggest the presence of rapid and repetitive changes during the plasma generation process.

Probing the Non-thermal Emission Geometry of AR Sco via Optical Phase-Resolved Polarimetry
AR Sco是一个包含白矮星和红矮星的双星系统。观测到白矮星的自转速度变慢,类似于旋转动力的射电望远镜;因此它被称为“白矮星脉冲星”。我们以前适合传统的无线电脉冲星旋转矢量模型的线性偏振光学数据从这个来源,约束系统的几何形状以及白矮星质量。使用一个更广泛的数据集,我们现在探索应用相同的模型,以二进制相位分辨的光学偏振数据,被认为是非热同步辐射的结果,并推导出磁倾角$α$和观测角$ζ$在不同的轨道相位。我们得到了在轨道周期上$α$的$\sim 10^{\circ}$变化和$ζ$的$\sim 30^{\circ}$变化。这两个参数的变化模式是稳健的,无论所使用的数据的分箱和时期。我们推测,观测者正在检测来自非对称发射区域的辐射,该区域在几个轨道周期内是稳定的结构。最后,这个简单模型的成功意味着粒子的俯仰角很小,脉冲的非热发射起源于相对接近白矮星表面的地方。
