Cosmic-ray positrons from millisecond pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2015)Observations by the Fermi Large Area Telescope of γ-ray millisecond pulsar (MSP) light curves imply copious pair production in their magnetospheres, and not exclusively in those of younger pulsars. Such pair cascades may ... -
Empirical constraints on the general relativistic electric field associated with PSR J0437-4715
(IOP Publishing, 2005)We simulate the magnetosphere of the nearby millisecond pulsar PSR J0437-4715, which is expected to have an unscreened electric potential due to the lack of magnetic pair production. We incorporate general relativistic ...
